Typisk fejl:
Learners sometimes confuse "transcription" with "translation." A transcription changes speech into written form in the SAME language, while a translation changes words from one language to another. Learners also mix up "transcription" and "transcript"; "transcript" is the finished document, while "transcription" can mean both the document and the process of creating it.
