Everything you’ve learned so far in this blog also applies for translation into English. No matter whether you’re a Korean electronics manufacturer or a German automotive parts supplier looking to make a splash on the international market, you can have your video content translated into English by professionals using one of the approaches described above.
If you’re an English speaker exploring online and come across a foreign-language video on YouTube and you’re looking for free English subtitles to get the gist of what’s being said, this tip is for you: look for the Cc button on the menu. Not all YouTube videos have this. If you see a Cc button, then you’re in luck. Click on it to activate the captions. Then click on the Settings icon next to it. Here you can adjust the playback speed, change the video resolution and activate subtitles. Click on Subtitles/CC. You’ll then have the option to Auto-translate into various languages. Select English. You won’t get 100% accuracy, but you should be able to follow along. You can also customise the appearance of your subtitles by clicking on Options. If you’re short on time and don’t want to watch the entire video, you can view a transcript in the original language of the video by clicking on the button with three dots. You can then simply copy and paste the transcript into an online machine translation engine
