Catalan focus groups, transcribed properly
Catalan (català): Central and Valencian varieties both transcribe on the same model; output uses standard Catalan orthography. Handles the constant Catalan–Spanish code-switching of real recordings; geminated l·l and apostrophes come out correctly.
Focus groups in particular: Diarization untangles overlapping voices better than session notes ever will. Coded excerpts, participant quotes and themes you can defend.
