Translating without uploading the audio
Worth stating plainly, because most tools cannot do it: translation does not have to happen on a server. The LiteScribe desktop app supports transcription without uploading your audio, and it translates on the same machine, using the speech model for English output and an on-device AI model for the other target languages. The web and mobile apps translate in the cloud, so this route is desktop-only. See the desktop app's Local Mode for exactly what runs on your machine.

Brazilian and European Portuguese diverge noticeably: European Portuguese reduces unstressed vowels heavily so words sound clipped, while Brazilian Portuguese is more open and vowel-rich. Nasal vowels (the ao ending, the til over a and o) and the cedilla (the c with a cedilla) are meaning-bearing and must be preserved for the transcript to be correct in either variant.

German builds long compound nouns ("Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung" for speed limit) that must be transcribed as a single token, and it relies on four grammatical cases plus verb-final word order, so the meaning of a sentence often only resolves at the end. The umlauts (a, o, u) and the eszett (ss) are meaning-bearing and must be preserved, and the formal "Sie" versus informal "du" distinction matters for tone in business notes.
A worked example
Portuguese (source)
Obrigado por participar; vamos rever os numeros do trimestre antes de abrir para perguntas.
German (translation)
Vielen Dank fuer Ihre Teilnahme; wir gehen die Quartalszahlen durch, bevor wir die Fragerunde eroeffnen.
The Portuguese "os numeros do trimestre" condenses into the German compound "Quartalszahlen", and the friendly "Obrigado por participar" maps to the formal German "Vielen Dank fuer Ihre Teilnahme".
