How it works

How do you get English subtitles for a Macedonian video?

To translate a Macedonian video to English, drop it on this page. Your browser takes out the sound, the Macedonian speech is transcribed and translated, and English subtitles are timed to it. Download the SRT to watch it in a player or publish it beside the video.

  1. 1

    Add the Macedonian video

    MP4, MOV, MKV or WebM: an interview, a lecture from Skopje, a family video.

  2. 2

    English subtitles are timed

    Macedonian speech is transcribed, then translated. Up to 30 minutes of each video.

  3. 3

    Save SRT or VTT

    Switch to Original for the Macedonian subtitles in Cyrillic, with the same timing.

Do English subtitles fit Macedonian speech?

Easily. Macedonian ran a little longer than English in our test, so the English for the same speech tends to be the shorter text. Each subtitle has at most 2 lines of 42 characters and stays up long enough to read at 17 characters a second.

The English is cut into subtitles by its own sentences and pauses, so its subtitles needn’t pair one for one with the Cyrillic ones under Original; each starts when its words are spoken.

Do Cyrillic names come out in their English spelling?

Familiar ones do. In our test “Мачу Пикчу” became “Machu Picchu”, “Мисури” became “Missouri”, and “165 км/ч” became “165 km/h”. Macedonian quotation marks „…“ turned into English ones: “Six Flags St. Louis”.

Автобусот одеше кон „Six Flags St. Louis“ во Мисури…
English subtitleThe bus went to “Six Flags St. Louis” in Missouri…
…105 милји на час (165 км/ч)…
English subtitle…105 miles per hour (165 km/h)…
…за време на Унгарското Гран прито во 2009 година.
English subtitle…during the Hungarian Grand Prix in 2009.

Do the subtitles follow the speaker or a known English version?

The speaker. One Macedonian test sentence described a well-known moment in its own words, not those of the familiar English version, and the subtitle followed the Macedonian. So judge a subtitle against what was said, using the Cyrillic subtitles under Original.

How reliably is Macedonian speech written down?

Reliably, with slips mostly in names and rare words, and its English came out strong in our test. Because the subtitles are translated from the Macedonian transcript, the Cyrillic subtitles under Original are where to look when an English line seems off.

Publishing videos in English too?

NoteOwl understands English on your Mac, though not Macedonian: it imports MP4 videos, transcribes them with unlimited transcription and saves SRT subtitles naming each speaker. For Macedonian subtitles of Macedonian speech, use the Macedonian subtitle generator.

FAQ

English subtitles for Macedonian videos: questions

Is the Macedonian to English video translator free?

Yes. 3 videos a day, up to 30 minutes each, with no account and no watermark. English and Macedonian subtitle files are both included.

Can family abroad watch a Macedonian video with these subtitles?

Yes. Send the English SRT with the video; players such as VLC load it alongside, and the video file itself never changes.

Does it replace the Macedonian voices?

No. It adds nothing to the sound; you get English subtitle files to show with the video.

How do I add English subtitles to a Macedonian YouTube video?

In YouTube Studio, open Subtitles, choose the video, add English and upload the SRT with timing. The Cyrillic SRT from Original can go up as the Macedonian track.

What if people in the video speak English or Serbian too?

This page transcribes everything as Macedonian. For a video that mixes languages, the main video translator with Detect automatically is the better fit.

Is my video uploaded?

No. Only short pieces of its sound go to a cloud AI transcription service, then the Macedonian text to a cloud AI translation service, and both discard it. The picture stays on your device; NoteOwl stores nothing.
