Captioning is the first step before translating
If you produced a video in English that you want to translate into Finnish, first you should get the captions and then translate into Finnish 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.
Translation of subtitles from Finnish into English, or vice-versa
Once you are satisfied with the captions in the original language you can start translating into English or Finnish. Â Captioning and subtitle translation is offered between any language combination (Spanish-English-Finnish or any additional language).
Improve interaction with your videos
Adding subtitles to your videos in Finnish or in several languages, will greatly increase the time spend by your users watching your videos. And on top of that you will be reaching an audience located in places like Finland…
Our native English-Finnish linguists will accurately translate and convey into Finnish the message intended in your videos, and shape it into a targeted and understandable message that will convince your potential Finnish-speaking leads.
On a subtitled video, the user listens to the audio in the original language (Finnish 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 Finnish language
Finnish belongs, together with Estonian and Hungarian, to the Finno-Ugric language family.
Despite the considerable differences with Hungarian, the relationship is evident from the phonological, morphological and syntactic characteristics, the common principle of vowel harmony, the agglutinative structure of the language and the absence of a grammatical gender, as well as from the complex case systems (15 in Finnish and 17 in Hungarian).
