About Malagasy recordings

Malagasy is written in the Latin alphabet. Official Malagasy is based on the Merina dialect; coastal dialects differ. Speakers often mix in French, which stays in French on auto-detect.

How to transcribe a Malagasy recording

  1. Upload the file (up to 5 GB) or paste a link from YouTube, TikTok, Facebook or another platform.
  2. Keep Malagasy as the spoken language (or auto-detect), add a translation if you want one, and pay once.
  3. Download the Malagasy transcript as plain text, text with timestamps and SRT subtitles.

An honest note on accuracy

Automatic speech recognition has seen far less recorded Malagasy than English or Spanish, so expect more mistakes in names, place names and specialist terms, especially in noisy recordings. Clear speech close to the microphone gives the best result. If a paid file cannot be transcribed at all, you are refunded automatically.

Translate Malagasy audio into English or another language

Choose a translation language before paying and you get two versions: the original Malagasy transcript and a line-by-line translation, both as TXT and as SRT with the same timings. That makes it easy to check the translation against the original, or to publish subtitles in both languages.

Questions

Which Malagasy is used?

Official Malagasy, based on the Merina dialect.

How accurate is Malagasy transcription?

Usable for clear speech, with more corrections than in English or Spanish. Speech models have heard far less Malagasy, so names, place names, numbers and specialist terms are where to look first. Background music, overlapping voices and phone-line audio make it harder still.

Can I translate Malagasy audio to English?

Yes. Pick English (or any of 141 other languages) as the translation language before paying. You get the original Malagasy transcript and the translation, both as TXT and SRT.

What if the recording mixes Malagasy and French?

Leave the spoken language on auto-detect. Each part is written in the language it is spoken in, so French sentences stay in French instead of being forced into Malagasy.

Is Malagasy supported as well as English?

It is supported, but less recorded Malagasy exists for training speech models, so the transcript usually needs more checking than an English one. The price is the same, and a file that fails entirely is refunded automatically.
