Display Subtitles in 2 languages on Netflix: Best Practices and Recommendations



If subtitles for a title are offered in a language but do not display on your device, try another device. The Netflix app may not support subtitles for some languages including Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Romanian, or Vietnamese on devices manufactured before 2014, but most newer devices do support them.


If you don't see subtitles or language options, they might not be available for that show or movie. Check the show or movie descriptions page in the Apple TV app to find out what subtitles or languages are available.




How to Display Subtitles in 2 languages on Netflix




This article explains how to display subtitles in 2 languages on Netflix. Dual-Caption is an open-source Chrome extension that lets you add 2 captions and shows both of them on on the screen. You can choose the first subtitle as usual in the Netflix player and then add the second one with this extension. Both subtitles are shown adjacent to each other with first on top and second just below that.


To show subtitles in 2 subtitles, first, make sure that the video has more than one subtitles. Then, select the first subtitle from the Netflix interface. Then, click the second subtitle button from the extension overly. This shows all the available subtitles and you can choose the desired one to display as second subtitle. Above attached screenshot shows a preview of displaying subtitles in 2 languages, English and German, on top of each other.


This is how you can display subtitles in 2 languages on Netflix. Both subtitles appear close to each other which makes it easier to read both of them. And, if you have a problem reading subtitles, you can customize the appearance and distance between the caption. The fact that you can bookmark captions makes it an entertaining way to learn and practice a new language. Check it out yourself and share your thoughts with us in the comments.


Netflix only displays the 5-7 languages most relevant to you due to a large number of languages available while you stream. You need to keep in mind that downloaded titles will only display the 2 languages most relevant to you. If you still want to change your subtitle language on Netflix, these are some simple steps you need to know.


5. On the right side of the pop-up menu, you will see "Subtitles" where you can disable subtitles, or select from a list of languages. Netflix usually lists five to seven languages it thinks are relevant based on your location data or preferred settings. Select the desired option, and a white check mark will appear beside your selection and will begin populating on the screen.


Please note that even though the search may be the same, the results may differ a lot, mostly in the sense that there will be many more options when it comes to the availability of subtitles in foreign languages.


If all is well, subtitles should still be available in your native language, or the language your account was created in, but it should also have the additional option of your recently selected languages.


The language learning Chrome extensions below help stack a self-improvement habit on top of your Netflix fixation. Just note that not all content has the same number of languages supported by subtitles.


LLN (or Language Learning with Netflix) is one of the more complete tools for the purpose. The Chrome extension displays two subtitles at the same time. The first one is the native language of the show, and the second is the language you are trying to learn. This visual pairing allows you to compare and absorb new words and the way they are spoken.


Mate Translate can translate 103 languages. As you watch a streaming show, just click on a word or a phrase. The translation is displayed in the player and you can use any synonyms, phonetic transcription, and the speak-out feature to learn pronunciation too.


Mega-streamers Disney+ and Netflix offer subtitles and audio tracks in multiple languages for large percentages of their titles, even the obscure ones. Sometimes you can get dubbing or subtitles only but there are plenty of options for every language. For example, you can find Spanish films subtitled in French and Norwegian films dubbed in Dutch.
