English to Croatian video translator

Much like English ones: Croatian came out about as long as English in our test, so it gets the same room, up to 2 lines of 42 characters, shown long enough to read at 17 characters a second. Č, ć, đ, š and ž count as one character each.

Lines break between words, preferably after punctuation, and the layout avoids leaving a one-letter word such as “i”, “u” or “s” at the end of a line. A date like “16. listopada” isn’t read as the end of a sentence, so the day normally stays with its month.

Yes. The translation used vi in all our test lines, including “Can you send me the report before Friday?” and “Please sit down, sir”, which became “Molim sjednite, gospodine”. That fits tutorials and company videos; a casual channel may prefer ti.

Three things viewers notice: vi where ti fits better, a woman introduced only as “she”, who may come back as a man (liječnik, rekao), and names, which stay as transcribed. In our test, English into Croatian scored above the dedicated translation system we compared it with.

NoteOwl understands Croatian and English on your Mac (see the languages): it imports MP4 videos, transcribes them with unlimited transcription and saves SRT subtitles with each speaker’s name. If the video already has English subtitles, translate those in the subtitle translator and keep every original time.
