Bengali Subtitling Services

Yes. Bengali (Bangla) is spoken in Bangladesh and West Bengal in India, and Bengali (Bangla) subtitling is done by native speakers of the language, never by English-speaking staff working phonetically. The finished text is written in the Bengali (Bangla) script, so it stays searchable and quotable afterwards. The same timed file can produce a burned-in version and a sidecar caption file in one order.

A native Bengali (Bangla) speaker chosen for the subject, then a second subtitler who checks the file against the original. Material of this kind turns on names and terms a non-speaker would have to guess at, so neither step is skipped on short files. Reading speed, line length and line breaks are set to the target standard before the first file is timed.

In the Bengali (Bangla) script, as a reader of Bengali (Bangla) would expect to see it, with a romanised version alongside it if you ask. The finished file is real text, not an image or a phonetic approximation, so your team can search it, paste from it and quote it. A translated caption track is timed separately, because reading speed differs between languages.

Yes, and both files are delivered together so the English can be read against the Bengali (Bangla) original and not taken on trust. Audio and video translation is $7 per minute, and certified document translation is $25 per page. Where a certified transcript has to accompany the caption file, that is priced per page.

Subtitling starts at $11.20 per minute of runtime. The rate follows the runtime of the video, not the number of caption lines the finished file contains. Bengali (Bangla) is requested often enough that work starts straight away instead of waiting for a specialist to come free. Quotes are calculated from the runtime, how many target languages you need and whether the file has to be timed from scratch, so two clients sending comparable material pay the same, and nothing begins until you approve the written total.

The date is fixed in the quote, and rush delivery within 2 to 24 hours is available where you need it. Timing is set by hand against the audio, so the schedule follows the real runtime of the video and not an estimate. Bengali (Bangla) material with heavy code-switching takes longer to work through than clean single-speaker source, and the date you are given reflects that.

The standard is 99+%, reached by doing the job twice: one person produces the file, and a second checks it before release. The reviewer on each Bengali (Bangla) file checks names and terms against the source instead of reading the text through, because this material is full of names nobody can guess at.

It is handled by restricting access, not by promising discretion. Unreleased video is routine here, so review links are restricted and nothing is held longer than the project needs. Bengali (Bangla) files often carry names, addresses and case references, so access stays with the assigned subtitler and the reviewer. Everyone on the job is under NDA, transfer is encrypted, and your own confidentiality agreement is signed before work starts if you have one.

Yes, and it is handled by assignment, not by guesswork. Here is what catches non-specialists out in Bengali (Bangla): Dhaka and Kolkata speech differ in vocabulary and pronunciation, and fast conversational Bengali runs words together. Give us the region when you upload and the file goes to a subtitler who grew up with that speech, which is the difference between a clean file and one full of bracketed gaps.

The regular Bengali (Bangla) material is immigration and asylum interviews, media, academic research and family recordings. Speaker labels, timestamps and layout are set to suit whichever of those you are sending, which is the difference between a file you can use and a draft you have to rework. Most of the work here is for teams with an accessibility requirement to meet, not simply a preference.
