Latvian lectures and seminars, 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.
Lectures in particular: Timestamps map every concept back to the minute it was taught. Study notes, revision summaries and a searchable course archive.
