Latvian interviews, transcribed properly
Latvian (latviešu): Standard Latvian output with macrons (ā, ē, ī, ū) and palatals (ģ, ķ, ļ, ņ). Russian loan-phrases inside Latvian speech are common in real recordings and handled.
Interviews in particular: Speaker labels separate interviewer from interviewee, and word timestamps let you cite the exact moment. Verbatim quotes for articles and papers, or a clean Q&A ready to code in NVivo or ATLAS.ti.
