How to get a Google Meet transcript in Romanian

What Meet does offer in Romanian

Live captions. Meet shows captions in Romanian to all users (Google Meet Help: live captions). They appear under the video while the call runs, and you can scroll back while you are in the meeting. When the call ends they are gone: captions are not a transcript file.

Translated captions. On Business Standard, Business Plus, Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus and Google AI Pro for Education, Meet can translate captions to and from Romanian; Google says the feature is still rolling out (Google Meet Help: translated captions). They are live too, and nothing is saved.

What people try instead

• Starting the transcript anyway. The transcript works in its eight languages only, and Romanian is not among them. There is no Romanian option to pick.
• Copying captions by hand. Someone keeps the captions open and copies them into a document. It breaks the moment that person has to speak, and the text has no names or times you can trust.
• Uploading a recording to a transcription service. This works only if the call was recorded and the organizer shares the file. It adds a step after every meeting, and everyone on the call has to agree to being recorded.
• One person takes notes. Fine for a short call. In a long one the note taker stops taking part, and the notes say what they understood, not what was said.

Who needs this

Romanian IT companies deliver projects for clients in Western Europe and the US. Delivery is discussed with the client in English, but the team’s planning call, in Romanian, is where the dates are actually set.

How Trippi Notes writes a Romanian transcript

1. 1Open the call in Chrome. Join the Google Meet call in Chrome on your computer, as usual.
2. 2Click the Trippi Notes icon. Click the icon in the Chrome toolbar once the call starts. Chrome lets the extension hear the tab only after that click.
3. 3Set Romanian as the language you hear. Choose Română on the language bar. It is a hint, not a lock: if someone switches to English, that is written down too.
4. 4Turn on translation if you want it. Tick translation and pick the language you read best. Each line then gets a second line in that language.
5. 5Read the notes after the call. The transcript with names and times, a summary, tasks with owners and a follow-up draft are in your journal.

The transcript is written in Romanian, as it was said, with the speaker’s name and the time on every line. The summary is written in the language you read: the one you translate into, or your browser’s language if translation is off. No bot joins the call and no participant is added. Still, tell people you are taking notes. It is good manners, and in some places it is the law: AI note taker consent.

What a line looks like

Andrei, 14:20
Putem livra modulul de plăți până la sfârșitul lunii, dacă primim accesul la server mâine.We can deliver the payments module by the end of the month if we get server access tomorrow.

The Romanian line is what was said; the line under it is the translation, shown when translation into English is on. After the call, a line like this becomes a decision or a task with an owner in the summary, and Ask AI answers questions about the call with quotes that jump back to the moment.

Notes on Romanian

• Romanian from Moldova. It is the same language and the same entry, Română. Accents vary; check names and numbers.
• Conditions in tasks. “If we get server access tomorrow” is the part a client will ask about later. The summary keeps decisions and tasks with owners; the condition stays in the original line, which a quote in Ask AI takes you back to.

Romanian on the other platforms

Zoom does: Romanian is one of the 19 languages of its cloud-recording transcript, on the host’s account. Teams does: Romanian is on its list of spoken languages, if the organizer’s policy allows transcription. The whole picture is in the language table.
