Teams transcripts language set up, proposing a way that would actually work
Hi I work in Western Africa, we are constantly using both English and French. Most of our meetings are with countries of the region (so, not in person but over Teams), and are often recorded, wit...
I love that idea, do you find it to be the case that a given person will always use the same language in a given meeting? I'm in a very mono-lingual environment at the moment, but I think in some contexts in W Europe for example, people will switch between (say, French, German and Dutch ) languages quite fluidly.
- Yes, most frequently, at least in my case, the same language is used throughout the meeting, because generally you choose a common language. It does happen though that we have meetings where the same people end up speaking several languages, for no particular reason than the fact that we all speak several common languages, or, as indicated in my post, because for some of our regional meetings, we necessarily have both francophones and anglophones, so we end up saying everything twice, in one language and then the other. But, my point is that with priori knowledge of the one or two languages that the person knows, it should be much easier to properly identify the spoken language, even if switching from one to another with no previous notice. Well, I hope so.
