German sermons and services, transcribed properly
German (Deutsch): Standard German plus Austrian and Swiss Standard German; strong on long compound nouns. Compounds like Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung come through as single words, capitalized correctly. Swiss German dialect (Schwiizerdütsch) is harder than Standard German — expect to review those recordings.
Sermons in particular: Timestamps make it easy to pull the key passage for the bulletin. Sermon archives, devotionals and accessibility for the congregation.
