Translate subtitles to Hebrew

Yes. Each Hebrew line starts with an invisible right-to-left mark, so a player that lays lines out left to right still puts the question mark and the full stop on the side where Hebrew readers expect them.

In the bilingual SRT, your original line keeps its own direction and the Hebrew lines below it carry the mark, so an English line and its Hebrew translation can share one subtitle without either being flipped.

A man, unless the line says otherwise. Hebrew has no neutral singular “you”, and our test used the masculine: “האם תוכל לשלוח לי את הדוח?” and “אתה יודע”. Speaking to a woman, change it to תוכלי; to a group, to תוכלו. “Thank you all” correctly became plural.

Usually. Hebrew ran about a quarter shorter than English in our test translations, so most subtitles have space to spare. Each keeps its start and end time and is laid out in up to 2 lines of about 42 characters, never split inside a word.

In our test, translation into Hebrew from English was level with the dedicated translation system we compared it with. Read the commands in your file before publishing: “Please sit down, sir” came back with the wrong form of the verb.

Hebrew is among the languages NoteOwl understands on your Mac: it transcribes recordings with unlimited transcription, labels each speaker and saves SRT subtitles with their names. For subtitles from Hebrew speech in a video, try the Hebrew subtitle generator.
