verbatims
Word-for-word transcripts
Verbatims are exact quotations or word-for-word transcripts, especially in research or business contexts.
Market researchers collect verbatims—the actual phrases customers use—to capture authentic voice rather than summarized findings: The report included verbatims from focus group participants.
The plural treats each quoted passage as a discrete unit.
