Translate SRT

Translate SRT Subtitles to English, Line by Line

You already have the subtitle file. LangScribe keeps every cue on its original timestamp and places an English line under it, so you can read the original and the translation together.

Importing SRT, VTT, or ASS is free and does not need an account. Free translation is available while you study. AI translation uses credits and is billed by the number of lines, for wording that follows the surrounding cues. The video, if you open one, plays on your device and is not uploaded.

Import is free. AI translation uses credits. Timestamps are not rewritten.

A subtitle file is already a study text

Fans and learners often have an SRT from a release, a course, or their own edit. Pasting it into a separate translator drops the timing and splits the line away from the picture.

  • Learners who want the original and English on the same cue
  • Subtitle editors checking a line against the video
  • Anyone who would rather not retype a file they already exported

Three steps, without moving the timestamps

The cue in and cue out stay as they were in the file. Translation is text on that same cue.

  • Import the SRT. VTT and ASS import too. This step is free.
  • Translate each line to English. Use free translation, or AI translation with credits when you want wording that sees the nearby lines. The timeline does not change.
  • Read them together, or hide one side. Show original and English at once, then hide the original or the translation to test yourself. One of the two stays on. Export SRT when you want the file back.
Import a subtitle file

Study on the picture, not in a separate tab

Open the video the SRT belongs to and the lines follow the playback.

  • Click a timestamp to jump to that cue
  • Loop one line or an A-B stretch, from 0.5× to 2×
  • Search the subtitles
  • On English lines, show US or UK readings
  • On Japanese lines, show kana or romaji

Who it is for

Language learners comparing a line with English, and people who edit or collect subtitles and want a bilingual pass without rebuilding the timing.

  • Use subtitle files and videos you have the right to use.

FAQ

Is importing an SRT free?

Yes. SRT, VTT, and ASS import do not use credits and do not need an account. Playback, loops, and free translation are on that same free path.

Does translation use credits?

Free translation does not. AI translation does, billed by the number of lines, and it needs sign-in. Choose it when you want the wording to follow the surrounding lines.

Will the timestamps change?

No. Each English line stays on the cue you imported. Import does not rebuild the timeline.

What is the difference between SRT and VTT?

Both import. SRT is the plain timed-text file most editors exchange. VTT is the WebVTT format, often used on the web. LangScribe exports SRT.

Can I hide the original or the English line?

Yes. Turn the original or the translation off to test yourself. The player keeps one of them visible, so the cue does not go blank.

Can I export the result?

Yes. Export SRT. You can also export a Word document of the lines, with timestamps.

Put English under the line you already have

Import the SRT, translate it, and read both on the original timestamps.
