Después exporta a TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT o CSV. Puedes probar sin registrarte, y con una cuenta gratuita la transcripción queda guardada.
Accent marks and homophones that change meaning
Spanish spelling is close to pronunciation, but several pairs of words sound the same and differ only in an accent mark or a letter. The model chooses from context, and these are the spots where a careful reader still finds errors.
- Diacritical accents: tú and tu, él and el, sí and si, más and mas, sé and se, té and te. In indirect questions the accent stays: no sé qué hacer, dime cómo llegaste.
- Verb forms that differ by stress: habló and hablo, está and esta, término and terminó. A missing accent changes the tense or the word.
- Solo and demonstratives. Current academic rules write solo and este without an accent, but many writers still use sólo and éste. Choose one convention and apply it.
- Silent h and b/v: a and ha, echo and hecho, vaya, valla and baya. With yeísmo, haya, halla and aya also sound alike.
- Seseo pairs, common in Latin America and southern Spain: casa and caza, coser and cocer. Context usually settles them, but check rare words.
- Lowercase days, months, languages and titles: lunes, noviembre, el inglés, el señor García. The abbreviation of usted is Ud. or Vd.
Numbers, dates and money by country
There is no single Spanish number format. Spain writes a decimal comma (3,5 %), while Mexico, Central America and parts of the Caribbean usually write a decimal point (3.5 %). Current academic advice prefers a space for thousands (10 000), but a period or comma is common in practice. Decide which country's format your reader expects before you clean up the figures.
Dates go day first: 4 de noviembre de 2026 or 04/11/2026. Ordinals are written 1.º and 2.ª. Years never take a separator: 2026, not 2.026.
Times can appear as las 14:30 or as 2:30 p. m., and amounts as 12,50 € or $1,500 depending on the country. A transcript writes what it hears, so read every amount against the audio when it matters.
Checklist before you share a Spanish transcript
Keep the audio open and run through this list. It takes a few minutes and catches most of what a reader would notice.
- Search for si, el, tu, mas and que and confirm the accent in each case.
- Check names, surnames with particles (de la Fuente) and place names.
- Choose one number format for the whole document.
- Look for a missing opening ¿ or ¡ in fast exchanges.
- Decide whether to keep muletillas such as este, o sea and pues for a verbatim record.
- Read the SRT in your video tool before publishing subtitles.
- Switch timestamps and speaker names on or off at export.
Spanish recordings that come up most
Students bring interviews for a TFG or TFM in Spain, or for a tesis in Latin America. Others upload recorded classes, WhatsApp audios from family or clients, homilies, neighbourhood association meetings, and podcasts. Speaker labels that show who said what are available on paid plans or with a Minute Pack.
For a TFG appendix, keep timestamps on in the DOCX export so the tribunal can find each quote. For the minutes of an asamblea, switch them off and keep the speaker names. WhatsApp audios can be uploaded as the file the app exports, or as the original from the phone.
