Thai video translator

Thai

Thai is selected when you start from this page. Add any other language in the same job; each is priced on its own.

Lip sync, on or off

On, the speakers' mouths are rendered again to match the Thai lines. Off, your picture stays exactly as it was and only the voice changes.

Proofread the Thai script

Read the transcript beside its Thai translation, line by line, and correct it before anything is voiced. Or upload your own Thai .srt or .vtt and the dub says exactly those lines.

Thai subtitles in the picture

When the dub comes back with its Thai script, style the subtitles and export a copy with them burned in, set in Noto Sans Thai unless you pick another font.

Polite particles depend on the speaker

Thai speakers end polite sentences with khrap if they are men and kha if they are women. A translated script has to match the person who is speaking on screen, or the result sounds wrong at once. While you proofread, check that the particles fit each speaker in your video.

Tones carry meaning

Thai is a tonal language, and a change of tone makes a different word. Names and product terms are where a translated script is most likely to slip, so read those lines carefully, and listen to them once in the result.

Thai writes without spaces

Thai script runs words together and uses spaces only between phrases or sentences. That makes long lines harder to scan while you proofread; take them a phrase at a time, and have a native speaker read the final script if the video is for customers.

Warmth over directness

A tone that sounds confident in English can sound blunt in Thai. Soften commands and hard sells while you proofread, and use respectful forms when addressing viewers. Thai audiences respond to friendliness and humility.

Online stores and live commerce

Thai shoppers buy through marketplaces, social shops and live streams, and watch product videos first. Translate the demo, quote prices in baht where the offer applies, and download the Thai cut for each channel.

Tourism and hospitality

Hotels, airlines and travel brands can speak to Thai travelers in Thai, and to visitors in their own languages, from the same source video. One upload gives every version.

Apps and mobile games

Thailand is a large market for mobile games and apps. Trailers and tutorials in Thai help a launch feel local, and the same job can also give you Vietnamese and Indonesian.

Education and creators

Course creators and channels can reach Thai learners and viewers with the videos they already have, checking terms and tone while they proofread.

The soundtrack stays

Sonilo keeps the original background music and sound effects and replaces only the speech, with lip sync on or off.

The speaker’s own voice

Sonilo keeps the speaker’s own voice in the new language, so the translated speech sounds like the person in your video, not a stock voice. There is no voice to record or set up.

Lip sync, when you want it

On: mouths are re-rendered to match the new language. Off: your original picture stays untouched and only the voice is replaced.

You approve the words

The translation is a script you can read and correct first. A product name, a joke, a line of dialogue: fix it before it is spoken.

Your subtitles, spoken

Upload an .srt or .vtt for a language and the dub says exactly those lines, instead of a machine translation of them.

Music for the new cut

Sonilo also adds music to video. If a translated version needs its own soundtrack, add music to it in the same account.
