As the process of globalization continues to deepen, the cross-border dissemination of video content is particularly important. However, language barriers often become the main challenge in this dissemination process. In order to overcome this obstacle, professional video subtitle translation services have emerged.
Subtitle translation is a service that displays text in non-image content such as television, movies, and videos, usually text content in film and television works. Subtitle translation has the following characteristics:
1. Immediacy: requires quick and accurate communication of information.
2. Popularity: Ensure that the translated language is concise and clear.
3. Comprehensiveness: Covers a variety of information types, such as dialogue, background information, etc.
From a linguistic perspective, subtitle translation can be divided into two categories: intralingual subtitles and interlingual subtitles. Intralingual subtitles, also known as "vertical subtitle translation", refer to keeping the original language unchanged and only adjusting the text display method; while interlingual subtitles translate the original language into the target language and display it on the screen simultaneously. This type of translation is also called "diagonal subtitle translation".
The content of subtitle translation can be divided into two categories: explicit and implicit. Explicit subtitles refer to the translation of character dialogues and dialogues; while implicit subtitles include the translation of time, place and other suggestive content.
Subtitle translation also faces the problem of space limitations. Artlangs Translation Company technicians pointed out that space limitations include screen size and the number of words and lines in the subtitles. The screen size affects the display size and length of the subtitles, and the subtitles need to be synchronized with the sound. Translators need to flexibly adjust the translation content according to time and space limitations to achieve effective information transmission.
