French panels and roundtables, transcribed properly
French (français): European, Canadian (Québécois) and African French are transcribed by the same model. Liaisons and elisions (l', qu', j') are written out in standard orthography with accents intact.
Panel discussions in particular: Cross-talk is the hard case — clear turn-taking transcribes near-perfectly. Quotable highlights, session recaps and an archive attendees can search.
