I have a backlog of more than 10 recorded interviews conducted in Shona, each running between 30 and 60 minutes. I need every minute of these conversations turned into a clean, well-formatted Word document that contains: • a verbatim Shona transcript with clear speaker tags (“Interviewer” / “Interviewee”), and • an accurate English translation directly beneath each exchange. Because the material is strictly for internal use, confidentiality is essential and I’m insisting on a fully human workflow—no AI tools at any stage. Every file must be proof-read by you (or your team) before delivery so I receive a polished, ready-to-reference document. Please be comfortable with Zimbabwean Shona nuances, idioms, and cultural references; the English must capture the same meaning and tone, not just literal words. If you can commit to steady turnaround times and keep quality consistent across all interviews, I’d love to start assigning the files right away.
