English → Italian
To translate English subtitles to Italian, upload your .srt or .vtt file to SubLingo, set the target language to Italian, and download the file with every timecode preserved. Italian text tends to run about 20% longer than English, so lines that fit comfortably in English can overflow and may need re-breaking to stay under 42 characters. Italian uses frequent apostrophes (l', un') and grave/acute accents (à è ì ò ù), with many doubled consonants. Keep each line under 42 characters and a reading speed below 17 characters per second — the limit Netflix sets for Italian subtitles — and save the file as UTF-8 so every character survives the round trip.

Translating from English into Italian: Italian text tends to run about 20% longer than English, so lines that fit comfortably in English can overflow and may need re-breaking to stay under 42 characters. Italian uses frequent apostrophes (l', un') and grave/acute accents (à è ì ò ù), with many doubled consonants. Because SubLingo rewrites only the text inside each cue, every timecode from the original English file carries over to the Italian version unchanged.
