Norwegian Subtitle Generator

Norwegian is unusual: there is no official spoken standard, and people speak their dialect in every context, including on television and in video. A Trøndelag speaker and a Bergen speaker pronounce the same sentence very differently, use different pronouns, and may differ on the gender of a noun. Any subtitle tool that expects a single spoken norm is going to struggle with half the country.

The model here treats dialect as the normal case. It reads the audio for what was said, then writes it in standard Bokmål, which is what most Norwegian readers expect on screen regardless of how the speaker talks. That gives you a clean, consistent subtitle track even when three speakers in the same video come from three different regions.

Everything else is detail that still matters: the letters æ, ø and å exported so they survive, compounds written as single words, and the English that Norwegians use without thinking left in English. If your audience reads Nynorsk, the transcript can be converted or edited into it before export.
