# CTM Transcript Output

This is a sample of the transcript text in a `.CTM` file:

    1 A 53.200 0.200 it's 0.000
    1 A 53.400 0.060 a 0.000
    1 A 53.460 0.340 big 0.000
    1 A 53.800 0.720 logistical 0.000
    1 A 54.520 0.920 exercise 0.000

From left to right, the columns in the output data file contain:

- The channel ID (usually `1`)
- A fixed field, `A`
- The start time of the recognized word in seconds
- The duration of the recognized word in seconds
- The recognized word
- The confidence value for the recognized word

If you have used any speech-to-text tasks with `Punctuation` set to `True`, the output appears as follows, with a capital letter and a full stop at the start and end of each sentence within the CTM file:

    1 A 53.200 0.200 It's 0.000
    1 A 53.400 0.060 a 0.000
    1 A 53.460 0.340 big 0.000
    1 A 53.800 0.720 logistical 0.000
    1 A 54.520 0.920 exercise. 0.000

NOTE:

The `Punctuation` parameter should be used only for languages that use the Latin alphabet.
