Practical fit
Practical guidance. Review the actual regional accents and recording conditions expected in the application. Government speeches and informal customer calls can differ in vocabulary, pacing and background noise. If the transcript will support search, inspect whether important names remain recognizable. Keep the model's regional scope visible when comparing it with a general French recognizer.
