FORMATS
Depending on a
recording's intended purpose, the method of transcription may vary.
Work can be produced in the following formats:
General dictated transcription
is when the
author has dictated the recording, such as letters, memos and
pleadings.
Verbatim
transcription (word-for-word).
True verbatim includes everything that has been said including ums,
uhs, false starts, hesitations and interruptions in speech. This
form of transcription is mostly used for legal purposes, such as
transcribing police interviews, witness statements and court
hearings.
Clean verbatim
lies between true verbatim and edited transcription. Unlike true
verbatim, unnecessary repetitions, stammering, interruptions and
false starts will be omitted in order to maintain the flow and
essential meaning of the conversation.
Edited transcription
is mostly used to transcribe speeches, presentations, interviews or
discussions that are intended for publication. As in clean verbatim,
stammering or interruptions and meaningless half-sentences are
omitted. Contractions are usually written out in full (for example,
“that’s” becomes “that is” and “I’m” becomes “I am”). Grammar is
also corrected. The emphasis is on creating full and comprehensible
sentences that convey the essential meaning of what a person is
trying to say.
