English and Foreign Transcription and Translation

Precision meets fast turn-around at Globalme. Whether it is Verbatim Transcription, Summary, or smooth verbatim, our team of professional transcriptionists and linguists will deliver the content the way you need it. You record it; we transcribe the audio and translate it.

Globalme often works with market research groups where accuracy of transcription and translation is a very important factor to ensure the proper interpretation of data. When performing transcription translation not only is being a native speaker of the foreign language a must, having a native level fluency of English is equally as important. For the reasons mentioned above, all our transcription team translators are required to live in an English speaking country.

Unlike many other transcription companies, we work with foreign languages every day and translation is our field of expertise. Our multi-level transcription process is followed by a quality check to ensure that your video is transcribed properly and that the transcribed text is translated entirely.

Verbatim Transcription and Translation

Verbatim foreign transcription is the written format of the spoken language. It captures all of the spoken words, including fillers, “ah,” “uh” and “om,” throat clearing, and incomplete sentences. It also includes pauses, laughter, and other sounds, which are expected parts of spoken language. This is usually the most expensive form of transcription as it takes more time for a linguist to transcribe the text. However, it is a valuable tool for job interviews, police investigations, and court cases where behavior and reactions of the person being questioned is equally important as the spoken words and translation.

Intelligent Verbatim Transcription and Translation

Intelligent verbatim foreign language transcription omits all “ums,””oms,” laughter, and pauses. Some light editing to correct sentences and grammar is introduced and linguists have the freedom to eliminate words and sentences that are not relevant to the subject matter. Intelligent verbatim foreign audio transcription usually takes less time then verbatim transcription and is often used for research purposes.

How fast can the foreign language audio or video transcription and translation be done?

On average it takes four to five times the actual audio/video duration for Globalme to complete the foreign language transcription and translation work. However, there are other dependencies such as audio quality, number of participants in the audio, and source language. If the project requires rush delivery, Globalme can utilize multiple resources to meet the project deadline.
