Add to Chrome – free
Nordic Dual Subs reads the broadcaster's own subtitles and shows them together with a translation. No copy-pasting, no second screen.
The original subtitle and your language, line by line, exactly when it is spoken.
Meaning in your language, the base form (sprang → springa) and an English dictionary gloss.
Every saved word keeps the sentence and the episode it came from. Export to CSV / Anki.
A previous line · S repeat · D next line. Optional pause after every line and blurred translation until you hover.
Foreign films on SVT have subtitles in the picture. The extension reads them on your computer and translates them.
Arabic, Persian, Ukrainian, Chinese, Somali, Tigrinya, Turkish and many more, including right-to-left scripts.
Real screenshots from SVT Play. Pick a language:
Yes. Everything is free during the launch period. Later there will be an optional Pro plan; the basic dual subtitles stay free.
No. Install it, open a programme on SVT Play, SVT Barn, UR Play, NRK TV or DR TV, and the second line appears.
No account, no tracking, no ads. Subtitle lines are sent for translation, and translated lines are shared anonymously so the next viewer gets them instantly. Your saved words never leave your browser. Details in the privacy policy.
Some foreign films on SVT have the Swedish text inside the picture instead of a subtitle file. Click the extension icon (or press Alt+Shift+S) and it reads the text from the picture.
Not yet – it is a desktop browser extension (Chrome, Edge, Brave).
