There are two principal ways to translate your original video: adding subtitles or adjusting the audio.

Subtitling involves placing a written translation of spoken dialogue on screen simultaneously with the audio. Dubbing, often confused with voiceover, means replacing the spoken dialogue with spoken translation, in most cases simultaneous. Voiceover, on the other hand, is when a narrator provides additional information or commentary without replacing the original audio.
