What is the easiest way to translate Arabic video to English?
Upload the video and keep English as the target. Most Arabic videos need subtitles first: at 0.2 credits a minute they keep the original voice and add English underneath. Pick an English voice (1.5 a minute) when viewers will not read. The first 60 seconds are a free preview.

An Arabic speaker, in English
A real run: the Arabic line as transcribed, the English line, the voice kept.
Demo clip: AI-generated presenter, translated and lip-synced by the same pipeline you’ll use.
Dialect words, made clear
The same question sounds different in Cairo, Riyadh, Beirut and Casablanca. The English says what the speaker meant.
| Dialect | Arabic | Our English |
|---|---|---|
| Egyptian | إزيك؟ (izzayak) | How are you? |
| Egyptian | خلاص (khalas) | That’s it, we’re done |
| Gulf | شلونك؟ (shlonak) | How are you doing? |
| Gulf | يالله (yalla) | Come on, let’s go |
| Levantine | كتير منيح (ktir mnih) | Really good |
| Maghrebi | بزاف (bezzaf) | A lot |
Right-to-left in, left-to-right out
The Arabic transcript keeps its right-to-left text; the English file is ready for YouTube, Vimeo or any player.

Street food from Cairo
Egyptian Arabic is fast, funny and full of slang; food channels live on it.
Dish names like koshary, ful and ta’ameya have no English equal, so keep them: put “كشري = koshary” in the glossary and the English uses the word viewers will search for.
Street sound is part of the video. Traffic and the sizzle of the pan stay in the background while the subtitles or English voice carry the talk.
- Dish names kept, not translated
- Egyptian slang made plain
- Street sound left in
Property tours in Dubai
Agents film one walkthrough and send it to buyers in London and Mumbai.
Gulf Arabic tours slip into English for terms like off-plan, service charge and handover. Those stay in English, and project names are locked in the glossary so they are spelled the developer’s way.
For buyers who watch on a phone with the sound off, English subtitles are enough. For a polished listing, an English voice in the agent’s own voice reads as the agent, not a narrator.

Frequently asked questions
Can I translate Arabic video to English subtitles for free?
The first 60 seconds of any video are free to preview. Signing up and verifying your email adds 3 free credits for 30 days, about 15 minutes of English subtitles.
Does it understand Egyptian or Gulf Arabic, not just Fusha?
Yes. Spoken dialects are transcribed and translated by meaning. Strong regional slang may need a glance in the script before you download.
Are the English subtitles left-to-right?
Yes. The English SRT and VTT are ordinary left-to-right files. The Arabic transcript keeps right-to-left text.
What if the speaker mixes Arabic with French or English?
Phrases already in English stay in English. French phrases are translated with the rest of the line.
How much does an hour-long Arabic lecture cost?
English subtitles for 60 minutes use 12 credits. An English voice for the same hour uses 90.
Can I upload audio only, like a khutbah or podcast?
Yes. Upload MP3, M4A or WAV and get English audio and a transcript back.
