Swedish to English video translator

Strongly, in our test. Swedish speech was transcribed cleanly, and turning a whole Swedish recording into English gave one of the better results we measured. Most slips worth catching were names, especially foreign ones.

A Czech skier, Oldrich Jelinek, was heard as “Aldrich Jelinek”, and a place pair read aloud as “Jakar/Bumthang” came out as one word, “Jackarbomtang”. Search the SRT for proper names before you publish.

Usually, which suits subtitles. “Nitton av de skadade” reached the screen as “19 of the injured”, and a skier who “slutade som elva” “finished 11th”. Digits take less room on a line, so the English stays easy to read at speed.

They follow the same speech but are cut separately. Swedish and English ran about the same length in our test; the English is split into its own subtitles of up to 2 lines and 42 characters, each starting as its Swedish words are spoken.

Under Original you’ll find Swedish subtitles for the same video. Upload both to give Swedish speakers and English speakers their own track.

NoteOwl understands Swedish on your Mac: it imports MP4 videos, transcribes them with unlimited transcription and saves SRT subtitles that name each speaker. For Swedish subtitles of Swedish speech, use the Swedish subtitle generator.
