Arabic YouTube video to English subtitles: paste the link, download an English SRT.

Paste the YouTube link. The Arabic speech is transcribed in Arabic script, right to left, then each line is translated into English with its original timing, so the English SRT or VTT fits the video. Packs from $4 for 500 minutes; the translation adds no charge.

How it works

Arabic YouTube video to English subtitles in three steps.

1

Paste the Arabic YouTube link

Paste it in the box at the top; the audio is fetched for you. If YouTube refuses the link, drop the downloaded video instead. Files up to 10 hours or 5 GB.

2

Check the Arabic transcript

The free preview of the opening minutes shows the Arabic text first, so you can judge it before you pay. Unlock it with a pack, then correct names and terms: errors in the original carry into the English.

3

Translate and download

Open the language control above the transcript, choose English under Translate into, then download SRT or VTT in English. A bilingual download carries both languages.

The short answer

What Arabic to English subtitles give you.

People bring Arabic news, khutbahs, lectures, interviews and talk shows from the Gulf, Egypt, the Levant and the Maghreb. For Arabic-only subtitles see Arabic subtitles; for the Arabic transcript as text, Arabic YouTube video to text.

Arabic into English

What changes when Arabic becomes an English subtitle.

Dialect speech (Egyptian, Gulf, Levantine, Maghrebi) is transcribed toward Modern Standard Arabic, so the English follows that reading. For dialect-heavy conversation, check the lines where a dialect word means something different in standard Arabic.

Religious expressions (inshallah, mashallah, alhamdulillah) are often kept in English subtitles rather than translated. Check how the English line treats them and correct to your audience's usage.

The rule that matters most: errors in the original carry into the English. Correct names and terms on the Arabic transcript before you translate.

Before you rely on it

What the subtitle file is, and what it is not.

Subtitles in another language

An unlocked transcript translates into 99 languages from the language control above it, and each language downloads as SRT, VTT, TXT or DOCX. Timing is kept from the original, so the translated file fits the same video; translating an unlocked transcript adds no charge beyond the minutes the transcription used.

Timing comes from the audio

Cue times are taken from the recording itself, so the file lines up with the video or audio you uploaded. If you trim the start of the video afterwards, shift the cues by the same amount in your editor.

Fix a line before you download

Open the transcript, correct a misheard name or number on its line, and the SRT and VTT you download carry the correction with the timing unchanged.

A plain file, not a styled video

You get the subtitle file. Fonts, colours, position and captions drawn into the picture are done in your video editor or player, which reads this file.

FAQ

Arabic to English subtitles, answered.

How do I get English subtitles for a Arabic YouTube video?

Paste the YouTube link in the box on this page. When the Arabic transcript is ready, open the language control above it, choose English under Translate into, then download SRT or VTT in English. Each English line keeps the original timing.

Is the English translation charged separately?

No. Translating an unlocked transcript adds no charge beyond the minutes the transcription used. Translation needs an unlocked transcript; packs start at $4 for 500 minutes and credits never expire.

Do the English subtitles stay in sync with the video?

Yes. Each line is translated in place and keeps its start and end time, so the English SRT or VTT fits the same video.

Can I keep the Arabic subtitles as well?

Yes. The Arabic SRT and VTT are downloads of the same transcript, and a bilingual download carries both languages.

How accurate are English subtitles from Arabic?

We have not published a benchmark figure for Arabic, so we do not quote one. Judge it on your own recording: the free preview (free preview of the opening minutes) shows the text before you pay. The English is machine translation and its quality is not measured, so have a fluent reader check anything formal.

Do I get English that reads left to right?

Yes. The Arabic transcript is right to left, and the English subtitle file is ordinary left-to-right English with the same cue times.

What if YouTube refuses the link?

Some videos sit behind a sign-in check and refuse automated access. Download the video, or its audio, and drop the file instead; the result is the same.

How long can the Arabic video be?

Up to 10 hours or 5 GB per file for the transcript; translation covers about 6 hours of dense speech per recording.
