Who transcribes Turkish content?
Turkish broadcasters, podcast producers, and the country's large TV drama industry transcribe and subtitle Turkish content for domestic and international distribution. Academic researchers, journalists, market research firms, and diaspora media outlets in Germany and the Netherlands also rely on Turkish transcription for interviews and archival work.
Turkish dialects and accents
Standard Turkish is based on the Istanbul dialect, which is what broadcast media and most speech recognition models reflect. Regional varieties — including Black Sea, Aegean, and Eastern Anatolian dialects, as well as Cypriot Turkish — differ in pronunciation and some vocabulary, so recordings from those regions may need closer review in the transcript editor.
Where Turkish is spoken
Turkish is spoken in Turkey, Cyprus, and parts of Iran, Kosovo, Bulgaria, Greece, Germany and Netherlands.
