Content should never be limited by language barriers. Take, for example, the many Italian videos that could have reached and impacted thousands if only they were in English. However, since Italian is spoken in a few countries, these videos stay confined to a smaller audience. That highlights how important it is to translate Italian videos to English.
But to many, it seems like a long and tiring process. Wondershare Filmora's AI tool steps in by offering an easy solution that lets you translate video from Italian to English in just a few clicks.
