Translate English Audio to Hindi

What comes back from an English recording

Choose Hindi as the language and keep "Audio and text output" switched on, and the job returns four things you can download separately:

Hindi audio

An M4A file: the translated Hindi speech laid over the music, jingles and room sound of your original recording

Hindi text

The full Hindi translation in Devanagari, ready to paste into a document

English transcript

What was said in the original, so you can check any line of the Hindi against it

Hindi subtitles

SRT and VTT files with each Hindi line timed to the original speech

Switch "Audio and text output" off and the same file costs a fraction as much: you get the Hindi translation as text and subtitles, with no new voice. For a recording you only want to understand, that's usually enough.

Where English audio needs to become Hindi

How the Hindi voice is made

There is no voice to pick. Up to 8 speakers in a file are told apart, and each one gets a Hindi voice copied from about 10 seconds of their own clean speech in the recording. Someone who speaks for less than about 3 seconds is given the copied voice of a similar-sounding speaker, or a stock voice matching theirs. Background music and noise are separated first, so they don't end up inside the copied voice, and they are mixed back under the Hindi speech at the end.

Hindi usually takes more syllables than English to say the same thing. Each Hindi line is placed where the English line was spoken and sped up by at most 1.15× when it runs long, so a fast English speaker can produce Hindi that sounds brisk. The article on how AI Hindi dubbing works explains the steps in Hindi.

Hindi that listeners actually follow

• Hindi verbs change with the speaker's gender (वह गया / वह गई). The translation follows each speaker's estimated gender from their voice, so a woman's lines come out in feminine forms. Check a few lines anyway; gender errors in Hindi translation lists what to look for.
• There is no setting for the register of the Hindi: you choose Hindi and get standard written Hindi. Technical terms can come out more formal than people say them in conversation, so read them with your listeners in mind. Formal or everyday Hindi shows how to judge it.
• If your audience thinks in lakh and crore, check figures like "2.5 million" in the Hindi text.
• Hindi output is in Devanagari. Roman-script Hindi (Hinglish written in English letters) isn't produced.

Files that work

• Audio: MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, FLAC, WebM. Phone voice recorders usually save M4A, which works as it is.
• Length: up to 2 hours per file. Split longer recordings at a natural break.
• Video works too: for an English video, use the English to Hindi video translator, which returns a Hindi MP4.
• Android WhatsApp voice notes (.opus) and many call-recorder files (.amr) need converting to MP3 or M4A first.

Clear speech gives clear Hindi. A close microphone, one person speaking at a time and low background music matter more than the file format; recording settings for speech has specifics.

What it costs

Hindi audio costs 50 credits per minute (5¢, ₹4.25), billed per started minute with a 2-minute minimum. Hindi text and subtitles only cost 1 credit per minute, with a 5-credit minimum.

New accounts get 100 free credits when they sign in with Google: one Hindi audio file up to 2 minutes long, or 100 minutes of Hindi text. Paid top-ups open soon, charged in Indian rupees through Cashfree Payments (UPI, cards or netbanking), from ₹85 for 1,000 credits; until then, the 100 free credits are what you can use. You see the exact cost before you start, and failed jobs are refunded automatically. Full details are on the pricing page.

Before you share the Hindi version

1. Listen to the first two minutes at normal speed and confirm each speaker sounds like themselves.
2. Read the Hindi text for names, place names and numbers; they are the most common errors.
3. Check that the voice doesn't hurry in dense passages.
4. Fix wording in the downloaded Hindi text; there is no editor inside mydubly, and changing the text doesn't regenerate the voice.
5. Get consent from everyone whose voice is copied, and say that the Hindi version is AI-translated when you publish it.
