Ukrainian audio to text

Yes. In our Ukrainian test transcript, і, ї and є appeared almost exactly as often as in the original text, and the apostrophe was kept in “комп’ютера”, “здоров’я” and “об’єм”. The Russian-only letters ы, э, ъ and ё never appeared.

Because Ukrainian and Russian share many words, and a short piece is easy to take for Russian when the language is guessed. Fixed to Ukrainian, the transcript keeps Ukrainian spelling; in our test only one sentence slipped, writing “Архипелаг” and “остров” for “Архіпелаг” and “острів”.

Search a long transcript for и where you expect і, and for Russian word forms, especially in place names and technical terms.

The page writes every piece as Ukrainian, so it suits recordings in Ukrainian with the odd Russian word. When whole stretches are in Russian or English, use the main audio to text converter, which finds the language of each piece by itself.

Our tests used standard Ukrainian read aloud. Everyday surzhyk mixes Ukrainian and Russian within a sentence, so read a transcript of it with that in mind.

The first sound of a sentence, names and the soft sign. In our test “Вчора” lost its first letter and became “Чора”, “Адміністрація” became “Міністрація”, and “льоду” lost its ь and became “люду”.
