Regions & Dialects Supported
PlainScribe transcribes Persian as spoken in:
- Iranian Persian (Farsi)
- Tehran-standard speech used in media and business. Best-supported.
- Dari (Afghanistan)
- Mutually intelligible with Farsi. Transcribed in the same Perso-Arabic script, with some vocabulary differences.
Choosing Persian as the audio language
Select Persian in the Audio language menu (Farsi and Persian are the same language). The dashboard recommends choosing it explicitly, and it helps more than for most languages.
Reviewing a Persian transcript
Persian uses a zero-width non-joiner inside words like "میخواهم", and transcripts may show a space or no break there. Normalize it if you publish the text. Output is right-to-left.

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is PlainScribe's Persian transcription?
Accuracy depends on audio quality, background noise, accents and the language itself, and clear recordings in widely spoken languages do best. We don't publish an accuracy figure for Persian: try your own recording with the free first transcript. Pick Persian in the "Audio language" menu when you upload. Auto-detect recognizes 33 common languages, and Persian is not one of them, so a file left on Auto can be misidentified.

Yes. PlainScribe transcribes Persian audio and video, and you can translate the transcript into English or any of the 59 supported languages. The translation keeps the original timestamps.
