Verbatim
What is the difference between non-verbatim and strict verbatim? Transcribing audio recordings involves various methods tailored to different needs. “Strict Verbatim” captures every spoken detail, including non-verbal sounds and filler words, while “Non Verbatim” focuses on conveying meaning by omitting filler words and unnecessary repetitions.
- • Each method serves specific purposes in transcription, ensuring accuracy or enhancing readability based on the context and requirements of the transcription task.
Strict Verbatim
- • Word-for-word capture including all non-verbal sounds or fillers such as: um's, ah's, uh's as well as stutters, stammers, repetitions and false starts.
Non Verbatim
- • Not word-for-word capture. Intelligently capturing the meaning by removing all filler words (ums, uhs, ah's, hmm, etc.) as well as false starts, repetitions and stumbles.
