Turn English videos into fluent French with ease

Making it easier to translate videos from English to French with AI
Artificial intelligence transcribes your spoken English-language audio, translates the text into natural-sounding French, and rebuilds subtitles and the voice-over on the original timing. Meaning, tone, and pacing remain intact across languages, so the French-language version feels native rather than machine-generated. Because French typically runs 15 to 20 per cent longer than English, timing controls keep every translated line in sync.
Advanced French Voice-overs and Subtitle Controls
Using AI, pick from expressive French AI voices, or use the AI voice cloning feature to recreate the speaker from a 30-minute sample. This French video translator can translate and dub in a single pass: the AI dubbing step handles French liaisons and vowel-heavy phrasing that basic tools miss. Choose Metropolitan, Canadian, or African French, generate auto subtitles for your video, and export the track as SRT, VTT, or TXT.
A Versatile Tool for English to French Video Translation
Everything runs in one place, so the same English clip became a subtitled cut, a dubbed French version, and a clean transcript without leaving the video translator. Import video and audio from a link, Google Drive, or the YouTube video translator, translate any video into French, then fix brand terms in the video editor before you render for YouTube or TikTok.

FAQs about English to French Video Translation
How can I translate a video from English to French?
Upload the video, select French as your target language, and generate subtitles or a voiceover in a single online workflow. A 90-second clip renders in around two minutes, and the free plan allows you to test three videos before upgrading.
Can the French version retain the original speaker's voice?
Yes. The voice cloning feature recreates the speaker in French from a 30-minute sample, and Video Dubbing synchronises their lip movements with the new audio. Choose Audio Dubbing when you only want the translated voice track.
Does the AI support both Canadian and European French?
Yes. Choose Metropolitan (European) French, Canadian Québécois, or African French voices, so natural-sounding French suits your audience. Set up a Brand Glossary to lock product names and regional phrasing across every video.
What is the cost of English to French video translation?
The free video translator covers three videos a month, and paid plans start at $24/month for unlimited 1080p translations. The Würth Group reduced translation costs by 80 percent and cut production time by half on the same workflow.
Can I get French subtitles without any voiceover?
Yes. Generate only the translated subtitles, then export them as SRT or VTT with the subtitle generator and upload the file to YouTube. You can add subtitles to the original English cut as well, and the free video translator lets you try this out before you translate a French video.
How accurate is the English-to-French translation?
Accuracy is high when the original language audio is clear and evenly paced. The context-aware engine interprets tone and idiom to produce natural, conversational French, and Precision Mode maintains sync as French expands over English. Review the text in the editor to confirm and fix your brand terms.
Can I also translate a French video into English?
Yes. This online video translator works both ways, so you can translate a French video into English or translate a video from French into any target language within a single project. It detects the original language of the video, keeps your video content in sync, and exports each version separately.
Can I enable lip sync when I dub English videos into French?
Yes. Video Dubbing aligns the speaker's mouth to the French audio with 0.02-second facial sync, so the dub looks recorded, not added on top. Audio Dubbing skips lip movement when you only need the French voice track.
