Croatian Transcription Services 

There are around 5 million people who speak Croatian in Croatia itself, with around 7 million speakers spread out around the rest of the world but primarily in the Balkans. 

Originating from Old Church Slavonic, Croatian has developed into a complex language however, it is mutually intelligible to a number of other languages such as Bosnian, Serbian, and Montenegrin.

These languages while similar have some colloquial word differences and use a different alphabet when written, which is why it is essential to use an experienced local speaker to transcribe audio in any of these languages.

Our Croatian transcription services only employ native Croatian speakers as second language speakers are less likely to be able to transcribe this complex language correctly.

Known as the Gaj's Latin alphabet, Croatian is written in a script similar to the Latin script.

Unlike the English alphabet that has 26 letters, the Croatian alphabet has 30 letters. 

Interestingly the alphabet is missing the Latin letters ‘q, w, x, and y’ yet they are now being used in words of English origin that have been adopted into Croatian speech.

At Absolute Translations, we can transcribe Croatian into the Gaj's Latin alphabet or translate the text into one of the 200 other languages we specialise in.
