Romanian 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 the hyphen follows DOOM, so the two read differently but say the same thing. Your project manager confirms the choice against your end use.

Because the hyphen marks a spelling decision, not a sound. Two words fused in speech — a pronoun and a verb, a preposition and an article — are one unbroken syllable on the recording, and nothing in the audio says whether DOOM wants a hyphen there or not. A tool pattern-matches against common strings; a native transcriber reconstructs the grammar behind what was said.

Yes. Ne-a, written with the hyphen, fuses the pronoun ne to the auxiliary a — 'ne-a spus', he told us. Nea, written without it, is an ordinary word for snow or an informal way to address an older man. The two sound identical in fast speech. In a witness statement or a customer complaint, that hyphen decides whether someone is speaking about being told something or about the weather.

By grammar, not by guesswork. The transcriber checks whether the syllable in question functions as a fused clitic — a pronoun, an auxiliary, a shortened preposition — or as a standalone word, and applies DOOM's rule for that case. Where a recording genuinely allows two readings, a second native Romanian linguist reviews the call against context before the file is delivered.

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, and so does how much of the audio needs careful grammatical reconstruction rather than straightforward dictation. Every quote carries our Price Match Promise.

Upload is encrypted, the file goes to one named Romanian 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. What difficult audio changes is time, and occasionally certainty about a word boundary or a name. We listen to a sample first and tell you straight what we expect to be able to capture, rather than handing you a file peppered with inaudible tags.

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. Diacritics are delivered in Unicode so ș and ț display correctly wherever the file lands. Tell us what happens to the transcript after we send it and we format it for that, not for us.
