Press Translate to Tamil. The subtitles are written in the spoken language, then translated into Tamil, usually within a minute.

4

Read and fix

Pick a caption style and make the video with Tamil subtitles drawn in, or download the SRT for YouTube, VLC or an editor.

Tamil subtitles for English and Hindi videos

Tamil is spoken by more than 70 million people in Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, Sri Lanka, Singapore and Malaysia, and by Tamil families around the world. Much of what they watch online is in English or Hindi: classes, tutorials, interviews and news. Tamil subtitles let them follow every line without waiting for someone to translate it by hand.

Students use it for English lectures in engineering, medicine or exam coaching, where one missed sentence can mean a missed topic. Families use it for a speech or an interview a grandparent wants to follow. A shop in Chennai, Coimbatore or Madurai can put Tamil captions on a product video first made in English.

Creators who post in English or Hindi can add Tamil subtitles to a Reel, a Short or a YouTube video for viewers in Tamil Nadu. Drawn-in captions show on Instagram, YouTube Shorts and WhatsApp Status alike, and the SRT goes into YouTube Studio as a Tamil subtitle track.

How the translation is made

First the video's own subtitles are written: in Accurate mode (the default) your browser takes the audio out of the video and sends only that audio to be transcribed by Whisper large-v3-turbo, with each line's timing. Nothing is kept. Choose On this device and the speech is recognised in your browser instead.

Then the subtitle lines, and only their text, are translated by an AI language model, a whole video at a time so each line is translated with the lines around it in mind. Every line keeps its timing, so the translated subtitles stay in sync. The text isn't stored.

The video itself never leaves your device: the subtitles are drawn onto it in your browser, or you download them as an SRT or VTT file.

Features

Tamil script

The subtitles are written in Tamil letters (தமிழ்). Names, brands and numbers stay as they are, so a phone model or a film title reads the same as in the video.

From any language

English and Hindi most often, but Spanish, Arabic, Korean or any of 99 spoken languages can be translated into Tamil.

Tamil in every caption style

The caption fonts have no Tamil letters of their own, so Tamil is drawn with the Tamil font already on your phone or computer, in any style. Check the preview before you make the video.

Edit before you download

AI translation can get a name or an idiom wrong. Every line can be fixed before you make the video or download the file.

Your video stays private

Only the audio is sent to be transcribed and only the text to be translated; neither is kept. The video never leaves your device.

Free, no sign-up

No account, no watermark. Free with fair use: a day's translations cover about 15 ten-minute videos.

How do I translate an English video to Tamil?

Choose the video on this page and press Translate to Tamil. The English subtitles are written first, then translated into Tamil line by line, each keeping its timing. Make the video with Tamil subtitles drawn in, or download the SRT.

Can I translate a Hindi video to Tamil?

Yes. The Hindi speech is written out, then every line is translated into Tamil with its timing kept. It works the same way for a Hindi film interview, a news clip or a class.

Will the Tamil letters show correctly in the video?

Yes, on most phones and computers: Android, iPhone, Windows and Mac all come with a Tamil font. The caption fonts don't include Tamil, so the letters are drawn with that font. Look at the preview before you make the video.

How good is the Tamil translation?

Good enough to follow a video. The AI is asked for natural Tamil that reads well as a subtitle, but it can get a name, a film title or slang wrong, so read the lines and fix any you need. Under More options, Make it more natural (AI) translates the video again with Claude, which keeps names, slang and tone: one video a day up to 20 minutes is free.

Can I get Tamil and English subtitles together?

Yes. Turn on Both languages under More options: each Tamil line shows with the original line, smaller, under it, in the video and in the subtitle file. It's part of ClipUtils Pro, and your first one is free.

My video is in Tamil. Can I get English or Hindi subtitles?

Yes. Set Translate into to English or Hindi before you start, or open Translate Video to English. Tamil speech is recognised on Auto-detect (it was right on all 15 clips in our test), and setting the spoken language to Tamil gives the best result.

Can the video be dubbed in a Tamil voice?

No. AI Dubbing speaks English, Hindi, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and German, and Tamil isn't one of them. This page makes Tamil subtitles and keeps the original voice.

Is my video uploaded?

No. Only the audio is sent to be transcribed and only the text to be translated, and neither is kept. The video stays on your phone or computer.

How long can the video be?

The first 8 minutes of any video are transcribed and translated free in Accurate mode, in a minute or two. The whole of a longer video, up to 2 hours, with ClipUtils Pro.
