Captioning is the first step before translating

If you produced a video in English that you want to translate into Estonian, first you should get the captions and then translate into Estonian and into as many languages as you wish. Captions are specially useful for people with hearing disabilities, and also in noisy places (like airports and train stations) or in places where audio can be a nuisance, like hospitals. Captions are a transcription of the original audio. Some words might be changed and repetitions are deleted to get short and compact sentences.

Once you are satisfied with the captions in the original language you can start translating into English or Estonian.  Captioning and subtitle translation is offered between any language combination (Spanish-English-Estonian or any additional language).

Our native English-Estonian linguists will accurately translate and convey into Estonian the message intended in your videos, and shape it into a targeted and understandable message that will convince your potential Estonian-speaking leads.

On a subtitled video, the user listens to the audio in the original language (Estonian or English, in our case) and is able to read the translations embedded at the bottom of the screen. Customers can then appreciate the narrator’s intonation and expressiveness. This is the way to get the message across with every nuance.

Some facts about the Estonian language

Estonian is a Finno-Ugric language, a European subgroup of the Uralic language family. Estonian is closely related to Finnish, so much so that Finns and Estonians can easily understand each other.

In general there are two dialects: Northern Estonian, which is spoken in most part of the country and also forms the basis of the written language; and the southern dialect, south of Tartul. In the course of its more recent history, Estonian has been subject to linguistic influences from both high and low German, and during the past century especially from Russian.
