What Tagalog to English translation gives you

This page opens Whisper Web with Tagalog selected and the task set to Translate. Choose a recording or speak into the microphone, and OpenAI Whisper turns the Tagalog speech into English text with timestamps. The result is English text, not spoken audio, and it is produced after the recording is processed rather than live.

Need the words in Tagalog instead? Switch the task to Transcribe, or use audio to text. Other source languages are on the audio translator page.

Tagalog, Filipino and Taglish

The language list in the tool shows Whisper's Tagalog setting as Filipino, and it covers standard Filipino speech. Everyday recordings often mix Tagalog and English in the same sentence. Keep the language set to Tagalog: the English words are kept and the Tagalog parts are translated.

Whisper was trained on far less Tagalog audio than widely recorded languages such as Spanish, so read the English with the recording open. Clear audio from one speaker at a time gives the best result. Regional languages such as Cebuano and Ilocano are different languages and are not covered by the Tagalog setting.

What people translate from Tagalog

Translation output is meant for reading and reference. For visa, legal or medical paperwork, have a qualified translator check the text.

  • Voice messages and voice memos from family in the Philippines.
  • Interviews with Filipino workers, caregivers or research participants.
  • Teleserye clips, vlogs and church services you are allowed to use.
  • Calls with Tagalog-speaking customers that you are allowed to record.

In free local mode, audio is processed in your browser and is not uploaded. Model files still download over the network the first time you use a model. Whisper Web Unlimited is an optional cloud workflow for larger files (up to 10 hours and 5 GB per file).

What if a result says Whisper Web but the address is different?

If a result says “Whisper Web” but the address is not whisperweb.dev, it is not the official Whisper Web site. Open https://whisperweb.dev to use free local transcription in your browser (20 minutes / 200 MB per file, no account).

How do I translate Tagalog voice to English?

Record on this page with the microphone, or upload a voice recording. Tagalog and Translate are preselected; start the job and read the English text when it finishes.

Does it work with Taglish?

Yes, keep the language set to Tagalog. English words in the speech stay in English and the Tagalog parts are translated. Check mixed sentences against the audio.

Is the Tagalog to English translator free?

Yes, for files up to 20 minutes and 200 MB each, with no account. Unlimited costs US$20 per month or US$120 per year for files up to 10 hours or 5 GB.

Can it translate a live conversation?

No. It translates a recording after you finish it, and the result is English text, not spoken audio. For back-and-forth live interpreting, use a conversation translator app.

Can I translate English to Tagalog?

No. Whisper's translate task only outputs English. Transcribe the English with audio to text, then use a text translator for Tagalog.

Is my recording uploaded?

On the free path the recording is processed in your browser and not uploaded for translation. Unlimited uploads the file when you choose cloud processing.
