Translation

# Translate one screen recording into 16 languages

Polysh translates the script you approved, gives each language its own voice, and re-times the video for each one.

## Each line keeps its click

Translation works on the script, line by line, not on a finished audio track.

1. 1### Approve the source script
    Translation starts from your reviewed script, not the raw transcript.

2. 2### Translate line by line
    Each sentence stays attached to the same part of the video.

3. 3### Review each language
    Edit any translated line before it's voiced.

4. 4### Re-time per language
    Each version is re-timed to its own narration, sentence by sentence.

## Example: turn on two-step sign-in

| Language | Script line                                                                  |
| -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| English  | "Open Security, then select Turn on next to Two-step sign-in."               |
| Spanish  | "Abre Seguridad y selecciona Activar junto a Inicio de sesión en dos pasos." |

The click on Turn on lands under its sentence in both.

## All languages in one export

Tick the languages, check the credit estimate, and export once.

[About guides](https://polysh.io/product/guides/)

## Product names stay the same

Your team word list carries product names, feature names, and acronyms through every translated script and voice. "Two-step sign-in" can be translated, and your product name never is.

### Set it once

Add a term to the workspace word list and it applies to every project and language.

### Kept in the voice, too

The word list also shapes how the voice reads your terms.

Built for teams in India

## Hinglish voiceover, the way your team speaks

Many teams in India explain software in Hinglish: Hindi in Latin script, with English product terms. Polysh narrates in it, so the script sounds natural and your terms stay in English.

"Security page kholiye aur Two-step sign-in ke saamne Turn on select kijiye."

## Questions about translation

**Does the app on screen change language too?**

No. The video shows the interface as you recorded it. For the closest match, record a separate take in that language.

**Can I record in a language other than English?**

Yes. Speak in any of the 16 languages and Polysh writes the script in that language.

**Do more languages cost more?**

Each language has its own credit cost, and the export dialog shows the total first. Polysh is free during early access.
