The Challenge
A language service provider required the transcription and translation of extensive investigative interview recordings in Karen, a language with a limited pool of qualified linguistic professionals worldwide.
The project presented several challenges:
- Limited availability of experienced Karen linguists.
- Variable audio quality across recordings.
- Multiple speakers throughout the interviews.
- Strict formatting and timestamp requirements.
- High expectations for linguistic accuracy.
- Confidential legal and investigative content.
Finding, qualifying, and managing a specialist Karen linguist capable of meeting the project’s linguistic and formatting requirements was critical to the project’s success.
