Audio and Video Transcription

LingoCafe’s skills are not just limited to written material. We can assist you with audio and video translations and transcriptions. Reports, documentaries, instructional audio and videos, college lectures, general conversations, presentations etc. – as long as audio is really ‘audible’

Translation and transcription of audio or video is time consuming, lengthy and difficult process than ordinary translations, but thanks to our qualified linguists – LingoCafe can translate them without much difficulty.
While doing transcriptions, your audios are very carefully listened to make sure that transcriber is not leaving any word behind. If recording involves any specific field knowledge, most probably translation task is assigned to translator with in-depth knowledge of the relevant terminology.

We follow two methods for audio or video translations:

1. Direct Method
In this method, audio or video is directly translated by translator. Documents are not transcribed, instead direct translation is produced. This method is cost effective and much cheaper than indirect method.

2. Indirect Method
It is used when you need transcription + translation. Documents are transcribed, and then translated. You will receive both, the transcribed copy of audio and its translated version. Transcribed copy is translated by native speaker with reference with original audio or video to ensure translation quality, tone and style of original.  

LingoCafe offers audio translation and transcription in almost any language, and from all major audio and video file formats. If you need translation to or from English, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi or any other language, please feel free to take a quick quote.
