English to Latvian audio translator

Latvian paragraphs, each with the time it was spoken, ready to copy or save. The Word file opens with the recording’s length, the line “Translated: English → Latvian” and the date, followed by the paragraphs.

The times make it practical for quoting and filing. When a Latvian sentence reads oddly, go to that moment in the recording and hear the English for yourself, or switch to the original transcript, which carries the same times.

Latvian adapts foreign names. “Dr. Patel and Maria Lopez” came back as “Dr. Patels un Marija Lopesa”, which is correct Latvian. When you quote someone or file the transcript under a name, take the spelling from the English transcript.

A name the English transcript misheard is carried into Latvian as misheard, with a Latvian ending on top, so the original transcript is the place to settle spellings.

Where the English says so, yes. “Our doctor said she would call back tomorrow” became “Mūsu ārste teica, ka zvanīs atpakaļ rīt”, with the feminine ārste. Where English gives no clue, Latvian falls back on the masculine: “The teachers” became “Skolotāji”.

It shifts from line to line. A thank-you to a room became “Paldies visiem, ka atnācāt šodien”, rightly plural, while “you know” came back as the familiar “tu zini”. For a formal interview, read the transcript for tu forms that should be jūs.

In our test, translation from English into Latvian scored clearly above the dedicated translation system we compared it with, and Latvian came out about as long as the English it translated.
