Tips for non-English dictation
- Speak clearly and at a comfortable pace. Test the result with your own microphone and environment.
- For languages with accented characters (é, ü, ñ), review the text carefully before sending.
- For Japanese and Chinese, review names, homophones, and other context-sensitive words carefully.
- For non-English cleanup, test the result with your own workflow and file feedback at contact@aitype.work if you find an issue.
- For technical content in another language, test mixed-language drafts and review the result before use.
Languages where Whisper is less accurate
- Regional dialects with heavy deviation from standard speech (Scots, Swiss German, Cantonese vs Mandarin)
- Languages with less training data: many African languages, some Southeast Asian languages
- Highly formal/archaic register (classical Latin, literary Arabic)
