How to translate English subtitles to Arabic

01

Upload

Drop in your English .srt or .vtt file. SubLingo parses every cue and locks the timings in place.

02

Pick Arabic

Set the target language to Arabic. The source is auto-detected, so you can leave it on English or let it detect.

03

Translate

Run the translation. Only the text inside each cue is rewritten in Arabic — never the timecodes.

04

Download

Download the Arabic subtitle file in the same format you uploaded, ready to drop straight onto your video.

Arabic subtitle considerations

Translating from English into Arabic: Arabic is written right-to-left, so subtitle players render the text from the right edge and mirror punctuation such as question marks and parentheses; the file stays UTF-8 with line order unchanged. Because only the text inside each cue changes, every timecode from the original English file carries over unchanged.

EnglishArabic questions

Will the timecodes change when translating English to Arabic?+

No. SubLingo translates only the subtitle text, so every start and end time is preserved exactly. Your Arabic subtitles stay frame-accurate against the original video.

Does it support .vtt files as well as .srt?+

Yes. Both WebVTT (.vtt) and SubRip (.srt) English files are supported, including multi-line cues. The output keeps the same format you uploaded.

Can I translate English to Arabic for free online?+

Yes. You can translate a English subtitle file to Arabic in your browser for free, with no signup and nothing to install.

Is the English to Arabic translation really free?+

You can try it for free with no account. Upload your English file, translate to Arabic, and download the result.

How long does it take to translate English subtitles to Arabic?+

Most English subtitle files translate to Arabic in a few seconds. Longer files with thousands of cues take a little more, but you stay on the page the whole time.

Is there a file size or length limit for Arabic subtitles?+

Typical movie and episode subtitle files — a few hundred KB and a few thousand cues — translate without trouble. Very large files may take longer to process, but the timecodes still come back unchanged.
