AI transcription that navigates Dutch orthographic complexity
Dutch spelling follows intricate rules that trip up even native speakers. Long vowels change representation between open and closed syllables: maan (moon) becomes manen (moons) with one a, while man (man) becomes mannen (men) with double n. Diminutives — ubiquitous in Dutch — select from five or more suffix allomorphs: bloemetje, koninkje, stoeltje, mannetje, vrouwtje. Then there's the divide between Netherlands Dutch and Flemish, with different vocabulary (Netherlands fiets vs Flemish velo), pronunciation, and even grammatical preferences. Vocova verarbeitet all of this, producing clean Dutch text from any speaker.
