How it works
- 1.
Upload a video or paste a link
Add an MP4, MOV, WEBM file or a video link (YouTube, RuTube, VK Video, OK, Mail.ru) to translate from English.
- 2.
Choose English as the source language
This helps the service recognize speech, names and timestamps before translation.
- 3.
Translate into Afrikaans
Polyglot Voice creates editable translated text after the transcript is ready.
- 4.
Download the result or subtitles
Export TXT, CSV, SRT, VTT or ZIP for YouTube, RuTube, LMS, websites and archives.
Translation practice: English → Afrikaans
What you can do with English video
Localize lessons, tutorials, webinars, and creator videos for Afrikaans audiences. Upload a file or paste a platform link — the page is scoped to English → Afrikaans.
You receive timed text suitable for subtitles plus a clean translation you can reuse in CMS, LMS, or video platforms.
Transcript first, then subtitles
Speech is transcribed in English, then translated into Afrikaans. Adjust wording before export so subtitles stay readable on screen.
Export TXT, CSV, SRT, VTT, or ZIP when the review is done.
Before you publish
Preview line length and breaks for on-screen subtitles, especially for fast dialogue.
Confirm titles, product names, and terminology in Afrikaans before uploading to YouTube, RuTube, or your site.

For Afrikaans output from video, use a transcript-first workflow, then subtitles (SRT, VTT) for publishing and LMS workflows. Английский — основной язык мирового EdTech, SaaS, YouTube и корпоративных вебинаров. При переводе видео с английского на Afrikaans важны product terms, цены и legal-формулировки: их проще выровнять через транскрипт EN, глоссарий и только потом перевод на Afrikaans.
- Согласуйте глоссарий английский/Afrikaans для названий функций, брендов и интеграций.
- Проверьте валюты, единицы измерения и форматы дат в переведённой версии.
- Для серии роликов сохраняйте единый стиль перевода терминов.

Frequently asked questions
How do I translate video from English to Afrikaans?
Upload the English video, select Afrikaans as the target language, generate the transcript and translation, then export the Afrikaans result for subtitles or publishing.
Can translated English video be used for Afrikaans subtitles?
Yes. The translated Afrikaans transcript can be used directly as subtitle text or exported in subtitle-friendly formats for English video with Afrikaans captions.
What types of English video content can I translate to Afrikaans?
You can translate English educational videos, tutorials, webinars, creator content, product demos, interviews and any spoken video that needs Afrikaans output.
Can I get subtitles in Afrikaans?
Yes. After English speech is recognized, the translation can be exported as SRT for YouTube, RuTube, LMS platforms, websites or internal portals.
Are long recordings supported?
Yes. Long lectures, interviews and courses work best with a timestamped transcript so reviewers can split the content into chapters and check unclear moments.
Can I translate audio without video?
Yes. MP3, WAV and M4A files can use the same transcript-first workflow: recognize speech, translate the text and export the result.
Can I use an API for this workflow?
Use the web dashboard for repeatable work: upload files or links, run transcription and translation, and export TXT, CSV, SRT, VTT, or ZIP. Public API keys for third-party integrations are not offered.
How can I improve translation quality?
Use clean audio, review names and domain terms, and check important terminology before publishing subtitles or translated copy.
