Transcribe Burmese audio to text
Transcribe Burmese audio to text: our engine takes 99+ languages, AssemblyAI counts Burmese among 99 languages. How to handle a discussion with several voices.
Burmese audio is not what our engine was built for: it transcribes 99+ languages, and nothing else. AssemblyAI counts 99 languages, Burmese among them (assemblyai.com/languages, read 22 October 2026). The Burmese recording belongs there; the 99+ languages part comes here.
Five voices and 99+ languages
A group discussion on the ground is the hardest kind of recording: five voices, a lot of overlapping speech, one language for most of it and another one thrown in for the questions. Two engines have to be in the plan, not one. Ours writes down the 99+ languages, with a timecode on every line; the Burmese needs a service that lists it.

How to get a group discussion into text
- 1
Count the voices on the tape
A discussion is hard to read even in your own language. Write down how many people speak, because the transcript has to separate them.
- 2
Hand the Burmese recording over
AssemblyAI publishes 99 languages, Burmese among them, read on 22 October 2026. We keep the address of that page in the sources below.
- 3
Upload the 99+ languages parts
The widget takes up to 30 minutes. Switch on the split by speaker, so the people in the room do not end up in one column.
- 4
Read the first minute twice
Overlapping speech is where a transcript breaks. Check the opening against the recording before the rest of the file goes anywhere.
Tips
Write the number of speakers on the paper with the file.
Split the discussion where the language changes.
Keep the recording; the transcript is derived from it.
Read the overlapping parts first, not the quiet ones.
Questions this page answers
Can one file hold the whole discussion?
One file may be up to 30 minutes, so most discussions fit whole. A longer session has to be cut by hand; we do not cut files for you.
What happens to a Burmese file if I upload it?
The language list of the widget has no Burmese, so the file would be handled as Russian. The words would not come back right, and the timecodes would still look tidy.
Is it free to try?
Yes: $0, three files a day, up to 30 minutes per file, no card. The paid plan carries no minute limit of audio a month and the DOCX export.
Do you translate the transcript?
No. The transcript is in the language that was spoken; translation is not part of the product today.
Where is the file processed?
A Russian or mixed file is processed by our own engine, outside the United States. A pure English file may be sent to a third-party cloud speech provider in the United States if that fallback is switched on.
