About Shona Transcription
Shona is spoken by 15M+ people worldwide, primarily in Zimbabwe, Mozambique. Shona is tonal with the famous 'whistled' sibilants and limited STT data, and tones are unwritten, so Whisper accuracy is moderate.
Writing system: Shona uses the Latin alphabet with the digraphs sv, zv and the 'whistling' sounds (sw, zw) that are characteristic of the language; tone is not marked in standard spelling.
