Spanish captions or a Spanish translation
Spanish is one of YouTube's largest languages, with auto-captions on most Spanish-language videos from Spain, Mexico, and the rest of Latin America. When a video has no Spanish track, the tool machine-translates the transcript, which is accurate enough to follow along, study, or search. For publishing, have a Spanish speaker review it.
Learn Spanish with YouTube
Read a video's Spanish captions with your own language underneath, click any line to replay it, and download the bilingual transcript to study offline. Pick videos with creator-uploaded captions for the most accurate text.
