Nepali, Hindi & mixed-language video: captions that actually keep up

2026-07-23 · 5 min read

If you talk the way a lot of the world actually talks — a sentence of English, a phrase of Nepali, a Hindi punchline — most caption tools fall apart. They lock onto the majority language and turn everything else into confident nonsense. TailorClip was built to keep up with how you really speak.

Language is detected span by span

Instead of guessing one language for the whole video, TailorClip figures out the language span by span. So a clip that flips between English and Nepali (or Hindi, Spanish, Tagalog, Chinese, and more) gets captioned correctly across the switch — not garbled the moment you leave English.

Three ways to show non-English speech

• ✦Romanized (default) — non-English words in readable Latin letters with word-by-word karaoke timing, so a global audience can read along even if they can't read the script.
• ✦Native script — proper Devanagari and other scripts, rendered correctly, when your audience reads the language.
• ✦Translated — English captions over the original audio, for reach.

It's one choice per video, switchable in a tap — the same line shown romanized, in script, or translated.

It learns your spelling

Romanization is personal — you might write it "chhaina" where someone else writes "chaina." When you correct a word in the transcript, TailorClip remembers your preferred spelling and uses it next time. Your captions end up looking like you wrote them, because you did.

Everything else still works, in any language

Word-level karaoke highlights, editable titles, the taste profile, smart reframe, music that ducks under your voice — none of it is English-only. Whatever language you speak, you get a finished 9:16 or 16:9 edit with captions that are actually right.
