# Auto Amharic Subtitle Generator

To add Amharic subtitles to a video, upload it or paste a link and choose Amharic as the spoken language. Edit the captions in the subtitle editor, then download SRT or VTT files or burn styled captions into the video.

## How to add Amharic subtitles to a video

1. **Add the video**: Upload an Amharic interview, news clip or podcast as a video file, or paste a YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo or X link.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I add Amharic subtitles to a video?

Upload the video or paste a link and choose Amharic as its language. When the transcript is ready, open the subtitle editor to fix words and timing, then download an SRT or VTT file, or style the captions in the video editor and download the video with them burned in.

### Will Amharic characters display correctly in my subtitles?

SRT and VTT files are plain text that the video player draws with the viewer's fonts, so Amharic shows wherever the device has a font for the Ge’ez (Ethiopic) script. Exemplary AI's bundled font set includes Noto Sans Ethiopic, which covers it. Check the preview before you burn captions into a video.

### Can I turn subtitles in another language into Amharic?

Yes. Generate subtitles in the video's own language, then use Translate in the subtitle editor and pick Amharic, one of the 116 languages subtitles can be translated into.

### Can Exemplary AI detect Amharic automatically?

Yes. Auto Detect (beta) in the language list recognises Amharic. If you already know the recording is in Amharic, choose it directly.

### Can I fix the timing of Amharic subtitles?

Yes. In the subtitle editor, drag a caption's edges on the timeline to change when it starts and ends, set the maximum lines and characters per line, or re-align the audio and text.
