Studying · SpeakFlow Translate · free Chrome extension

Learn from lectures
in a language you're still learning

The best material is often in a language you only half understand. Translated subtitles let you follow the argument now and pick up the language as you go.

Free, no account needed · Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera on desktop

What you get

Both languages at once

See the original and the translation together — the fastest way to actually learn the words rather than just get the gist.

Keep the subtitles

Export SRT and revise from the text afterwards, without scrubbing back through the video.

Summarise before you commit

A one-paragraph summary tells you whether a ninety-minute lecture is worth your evening.

Listen instead of reading

Dubbing lets you follow a talk while your eyes are on the slides or your notes.

How to set it up

1

Add the extension to Chrome

Free, no account needed.

2

Open the lecture on YouTube

Press the SpeakFlow button on the player.

3

Turn on both subtitle lines

Original on top, your language underneath.

Worth knowing: This covers YouTube. Course platforms with their own players — and live classes — need SpeakFlow Pro instead, which listens to whatever the computer plays.
