Free Lithuanian Speech-to-Text

Lithuanian is a Baltic language spoken by around 3 million people, and it is the official language of Lithuania, a member of the European Union. It is one of the most archaic living Indo-European languages, preserving features close to reconstructed Proto-Indo-European that most other languages lost long ago, which makes it a favourite of linguists and a language rich in careful, precise grammar.

ConvertSpeech transcribes it automatically. Upload your audio or video and our speech-recognition engine writes out the spoken Lithuanian with its diacritics and punctuation, ready to copy into a document, subtitle file or translation tool. It runs in your browser, needs no installation, and your first minutes are free with no account required.

Lithuanian has a mobile pitch accent, meaning stressed syllables carry a rising or falling tone and the stress can move between forms of the same word. Combined with its rich system of endings, this makes clear audio especially valuable. ConvertSpeech is tuned for standard Lithuanian and produces natural text, complete with the ą, č, ę, ė, į, š, ų, ū and ž characters, from clean recordings.

Standard Lithuanian is based on the western Aukštaitian dialect and is used consistently in broadcasting and education, so most speakers transcribe well. As always, the largest factor in accuracy is recording quality — a clear signal with little background noise beats everything else.
