Twitter, now known as X, is always in the news. From tweets to videos, information spreads quickly through this platform. While some may argue that tweets are the best format, the importance of video content can never be ignored. One problem that video content does have is the language difference issue, and the solution is Twitter video translation.

Twitter has an automatic translation feature for plain text tweets, but there is no built-in tool to translate videos. Therefore, a detailed guide for Twitter video translation is needed. There are multiple ways that involve using third-party tools and translation bots on X (Twitter). In addition, we will also show how to turn on closed captions in the default language on Twitter.

Part 1: How to Translate Twitter Videos with AI Video Translator

There are many AI video translators for automatic video translation. HitPaw Edimakor belongs to the group, and has multiple times proved its usefulness as an AI video editing tool equipped with automatic subtitling and translation features. Edimakor offers:

Part 2: How to Translate Twitter Videos with Translation Bots

To translate Twitter videos within Twitter itself, there is also a workaround. Many bots on Twitter, when tagged on any video, can easily translate that video as per your request in just a few moments. These are all automatically translated by robots, so there may be some translation errors.

A few common bots that work nicely are @Translatevidapp, @TranslateMom, and @vidtranslator. Here is how to Twitter video translate in a few simple clicks:

  • First of all, search X/ Twitter for some video translation bots. Follow them so that you can receive translations.

  • When you find videos that need translation, open the Reply section and tag the bot you want to use.

  • Finally, the bot translates the video, and you will see the translated subtitles on the video.

Part 3: How to Watch Twitter Videos with Default Caption

Now we’ll show the correct way of turning on closed captions in Twitter. After enabling this option, captions in the default language should begin appearing at the bottom of the video.

To do this, open X app on your mobile and then play any video. Now, look for the three vertical dots in the top right corner and tap on it. Some controls should appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap on Captions to turn it on.
