About Kyrgyz transcription

Kyrgyz (Кыргызча) is written in Cyrillic and spoken principally in Kyrgyzstan. Subtitles generated here come back in that script, as ordinary written Kyrgyz, ready to use in an SRT or VTT file.

Kyrgyz is written in Cyrillic and is close to Kazakh, close enough that detection between the two is not dependable on short clips. Russian is mixed into everyday speech heavily, particularly in Bishkek, and those switches are transcribed as spoken.

Line length in Kyrgyz

Kyrgyz builds meaning by stacking endings onto a stem, producing few words but long ones. Lines come out dense rather than wordy.

Shorter subtitle blocks read better as a result, and splitting one across two events costs nothing — the timings come from the speech either way.

Getting a better Kyrgyz transcript

• Set the language to Kyrgyz rather than leaving detection on, particularly for clips under a minute where there is little audio to judge from.
• Upload the highest-quality audio you have; compression artefacts cost more accuracy than most people expect.
• Check proper nouns, place names and numbers first — recognition errors concentrate there.
• Read the transcript before exporting. Kyrgyz subtitles are editable up until you download them.

Kyrgyz subtitles in another language

The same Kyrgyz audio can produce subtitles in any of the 76 supported languages instead of in Kyrgyz itself. English is the most common target, but every pair works, and the translated file keeps the original timings so it drops onto the same video unchanged.
