How To Create Malayalam Subtitles
Malayalam is a language spoken by over 35 million people in India and the Indian diaspora. It is the official language of the Indian state of Kerala and is also spoken in parts of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu. Malayalam is also spoken by significant minorities in Bahrain, Fiji, Israel, Malaysia, Qatar, Singapore, and the UAE.
Adding subtitles and captions to Malayalam audio and video is an effective way to reach a wider audience and increase engagement. Subtitles and captions are a valuable resource for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community, as well as for language learners and those who are not native speakers of the language.
What are Subtitles and How Are They Different Than Captions?
Subtitles are the text transcript of an audio or video that is displayed on-screen. They provide additional context that is not communicated through the audio or visuals. Subtitles can be used to clarify the language used in the audio and provide a bridge between languages.
Captions are similar to subtitles but also include information about the sound elements in the audio. This can include sound effects, music, and any other non-verbal sounds that are made. Captions provide a more comprehensive understanding of the audio.
How to Create Malayalam Subtitles
Creating subtitles and captions for Malayalam audio and video is a relatively simple process. The first step is to transcribe the audio into text. This can be done manually or with the help of transcription software. Speak AI is a speech recognition and natural language platform with over 70,000 users that can help you transcribe audio in Malayalam quickly and accurately.
Once the audio has been transcribed, the text can be edited for accuracy and readability. Then, the text can be formatted for subtitles or captions. Subtitles and captions can be manually added to the video or audio file, or the file can be uploaded to a platform that automatically creates subtitles and captions. Speak AI offers an automated solution for creating subtitles and captions for Malayalam audio and video.
