How it works

How do you get a Polish transcript of an English recording?

To translate English audio to Polish, drop the file on this page; it listens for English and writes Polish. The speech is transcribed in short pieces, and each line is translated with the moment it was said. Then copy the Polish or save it as a document.

  1. 1

    Add the English recording

    MP3, M4A, WAV, OGG or the MP4 a meeting app saves: a talk, a call, an interview.

  2. 2

    Transcribed, then put into Polish

    English first, then Polish, a batch of lines at a time. Up to 30 minutes of each file.

  3. 3

    Keep the Polish text

    Copy it or save TXT or Word; switch to Original whenever you want the English wording.

What do you end up with?

A Polish transcript in timed paragraphs. Save it as a Word document that opens with the recording’s length, “Translated: English → Polish” and the date, or as plain text. The English transcript, with the same times, stays under Original.

The times are what make a translated transcript useful for work: when you want to quote a Polish line, the time takes you to the English words in the recording, so you can hear exactly what the speaker said.

How does casual spoken English come out in Polish?

As everyday Polish. “Well, you know, it’s kind of a big deal” became “Cóż, wiesz, to całkiem wielka sprawa” in our test: the filler survived, and the casual “you know” took the familiar ty form, “wiesz”.

A speaker addressing a room comes through naturally too: “Thank you all for coming today” became “Dziękuję wszystkim za przybycie dzisiaj”. If you are quoting someone who should sound formal, change ty forms to Pan or Pani in the saved text.

Why does the Polish need to know who is a woman?

Because Polish nouns and past-tense verbs show gender and English often doesn’t. Given “she”, our test wrote “Nasza lekarka powiedziała”, a female doctor. Given no clue, as with “the teachers”, it used the masculine form.

“Nauczyciele byli zmęczeni” is right for men or a mixed group; if the teachers were all women, the Polish would be “Nauczycielki były zmęczone”.

Our doctor said she would call back tomorrow.
PolishNasza lekarka powiedziała, że oddzwoni jutro.
The teachers were tired after the trip.
PolishNauczyciele byli zmęczeni po wycieczce.

What happens to names in the Polish transcript?

They stay as the English transcript spelled them. “Dr. Patel and Maria Lopez will lead the session” became “Dr Patel i Maria Lopez poprowadzą sesję”, with the title written the Polish way. A name misheard in English stays misheard, so check unusual ones.

How good is English to Polish translation here?

Good enough to read and work from. In our test of fifty English sentences, translation into Polish scored clearly above the dedicated translation system we compared it with. Read quotes against the English before you publish them.

FAQ

Questions about English recordings in Polish

Is the English to Polish audio translator free?

Yes. 3 recordings a day, up to 30 minutes each, with no account. The Polish transcript, the English one and every download format are included.

Can I send the Polish to someone as a Word file?

Yes. Save Word and you get a document with the recording’s name, its length, the line “Translated: English → Polish” and the date, then the Polish paragraphs with their times. Untick Times in the text for clean paragraphs.

Can it handle a Zoom or Teams recording?

Yes, once you have it as a file: the MP4 or M4A a meeting app saves works, as do MP3 and WAV. Only the sound is used.

What if part of the recording is in Polish?

This page treats all the speech as English. For a conversation that switches between English and Polish, use the main audio translator with the spoken language on Detect automatically.

Will it say who was speaking?

No. The Polish transcript has words and times but no speaker names. NoteOwl on a Mac labels each speaker in the transcripts it makes.

Does it make a Polish voice recording?

No. The result is written Polish, as text, Word or subtitles. Nothing is read aloud.

Is my recording uploaded?

Your browser keeps the file. Short pieces of its sound go to a cloud AI transcription service, then the English text to a cloud AI translation service, and each discards what it received. NoteOwl stores nothing.
