Hungarian transcription services

Clean read suits corporate video, interviews for publication and anything heading for translation: filler words and false starts come out, meaning stays. Verbatim is what legal proceedings, compliance material and research interviews need, because every utterance and pause is on the record. Either way, long compounds are hyphenated to the rule, not to a guess. Your project manager confirms the choice against your end use.

Yes. We can deliver a Hungarian transcript, an English translation, or both side by side. The same native transcriber produces the source text, and a separate qualified translator works from the original audio rather than from the transcript alone, which preserves meaning a text-only translation can miss.

It is the rule that decides when a long compound word takes a hyphen. Hungary's Language Committee sets it at more than six syllables and more than two elements: past that point, the compound is hyphenated at the join between its two main parts; below it, or in a two-element compound of any length, it stays written solid. It is a count, not a sound, and the recording never signals it.

By counting, every time, on every long compound. Our Hungarian transcribers apply the rule as a matter of routine while transcribing, and a second linguist checks the syllable count and the element count against the Language Committee's own rulebook before delivery, so a single missed or added hyphen does not reach you.

There is no flat rate, because no two files take the same work. Runtime, recording quality, how many people are talking, your deadline and whether you also need an English version all move the figure. So does how compound-heavy the vocabulary is — technical and corporate material carries far more long compounds than a scripted piece to camera. Every quote carries our Price Match Promise.

Upload is encrypted, the file goes to one named Hungarian transcriber who has signed an NDA, and nothing is put through public speech-to-text services at any point. If you have your own confidentiality agreement we sign it, if you have retention rules we work to them, and if your policy says the audio goes once the transcript is approved, we delete it.

It is normal work. Phone audio, site noise, focus groups and meetings where three people speak at once all get transcribed, and long technical compounds are routine for our Hungarian transcribers. What difficult audio changes is time, and occasionally certainty about a name. We listen to a sample first and tell you straight what we expect to be able to capture.

In whatever the next step needs: plain text, Word, PDF, SRT, VTT or your own template, with timecodes and speaker labels set the way you want them. Tell us what happens to the transcript after we send it and we format it for that, not for us.
