Romanian transcription, in detail
Accuracy, the accents we cover, and the words worth teaching your custom dictionary.

Estimated on clear, single-speaker audio. Recording quality, crosstalk and background noise move this figure further than the language itself does.
Accents and varieties covered
Romanian is not one accent. These are the varieties the model is built to handle, so a regional speaker is not a special case.

What the output looks like
Timestamped, speaker-labelled, and editable in your browser the moment it lands.
Să începem cu cifrele din trimestrul trecut.
In English: Let's start with last quarter's figures.
Words worth adding to your custom dictionary
Every language has a handful of words any engine has to guess at. In Romanian these are the usual ones. Add them to your custom dictionary once and they come back right in every transcript from then on.
| Commonly guessed | What you meant | Why they collide |
|---|---|---|
| si | și | The comma-below diacritics are routinely typed as plain letters. |
| romîn | român | Two letters for one sound, chosen by position in the word. |
| Ionesco | Ionescu | Surnames carry both Romanian and French-era spellings. |
Getting the best Romanian transcript
Add names and technical terms to your custom dictionary with their proper diacritics. Romanian uses letters with commas below that are routinely typed as plain letters, and the dictionary holds the correct form.
Ask speakers to introduce themselves at the start of the recording. Romanian surnames carry both native and French-era spellings, and hearing the name gives you the base form to label speakers with in the editor.
Common questions about Romanian transcription
Who needs Romanian transcription?
Romanian public bodies and courts, shared-service and technology centres in Bucharest and Cluj, broadcasters, and universities running Romanian-language research.
How accurate is Romanian transcription?
We estimate around 96.2% on clear, single-speaker Romanian audio. Recording quality moves that figure further than the language does, so a close microphone and one person speaking at a time is the biggest lever you have. Names, places and industry terms go into your custom dictionary once and come back right in every transcript after that.
Which Romanian accents and dialects are supported?
These varieties: Standard Romanian, Bucharest, Moldovan, Transylvanian. The model is built for all of them, so a recording with several accents in the room is handled the same way as one without.
What is distinctive about Romanian?
Romanian is the Romance language that kept noun cases, and it uses letters with commas below that are routinely typed as plain letters instead. The model writes the correct diacritics, which the search-and-replace pass otherwise has to do by hand.
Will Romanian text export correctly?
Yes. Romanian text (Latin) comes through every export unchanged: Microsoft Word, PDF, plain text, and SRT, VTT and Avid DS subtitles. Text direction and diacritics survive the round trip, so a transcript opens the way it looked in the editor.
How long does Romanian transcription take?
Most transcriptions are ready in less time than the length of the file. A 60-minute recording is typically processed well under an hour, and you get an email as soon as it is ready.
Can I translate a Romanian transcript?
Yes. Pick a target language and click translate: your Romanian transcript is translated into any of 60+ languages as a full, editable document with word-level timestamps preserved, so you can export subtitles from the translation just as you would from the original.
