Foreign language transcription is the process of taking spoken words on an audio or video recording in one language and converting them into written text in another language.
Here are some recent transcriptions we’ve worked on:

Not all oral languages have a long history of developing side-by-side with their written counterparts. This poses an additional difficulty for transcribers when, like in Yoruba, there is a vast difference between written-literary Yoruba and the slang or common/spoken Yoruba. Add to that 200 possible sub-dialects, a rushed (over the Holidays) deadline, and mix in Nigerian Pidgin and English… and you’ve got a project that requires an entire team to pull through on-time. And Legal Interpreters LLC was ready for the challenge!

Over 33 hours of audio transcription completed within 3 weeks had our team of 8 linguists working at all hours to get the highest quality transcripts within such a rushed timeline. Legal Interpreters LLC has the experience and processes in place to manage even the largest projects on a tight deadline.

Sometimes the most difficult aspect of a transcription is finding a qualified and experienced linguist with the right combination of languages. This is especially important when all of the languages are mixed in together within a single conversation so splitting the audios is next to impossible. Legal Interpreters LLC has a vast directory of experienced linguists and if we don’t have exactly what you need, we’ll search until we do.
