Malayalam video translator

Malayalam

Malayalam 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 Malayalam lines. Off, your picture stays exactly as it was and only the voice changes.

Proofread the Malayalam script

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

Malayalam subtitles: not yet in the picture

None of the subtitle fonts can set Malayalam text yet, so subtitles cannot be burned into a Malayalam dub today. The dubbed video itself is unaffected.

Formal and spoken Malayalam differ

Written Malayalam is more formal than the Malayalam people speak, and a script in the written style can sound like a news broadcast. While you proofread, move lines toward natural spoken Malayalam for ads and creators, and keep the formal style for official or educational content.

Keep the English Malayalis use

Everyday Malayalam mixes in English words freely, especially for technology, work and shopping. Replacing every one of them with a pure Malayalam word can sound unnatural. Keep the terms your viewers actually say while you proofread.

Address viewers respectfully

Malayalam has several ways to say you, from the respectful ningal to the familiar nee. Presenters and brands usually address viewers respectfully. Check that the script uses one form of address throughout.

Speak to the Gulf too

Many Malayalam speaking viewers live and work in the Gulf states. If your video is for them, adjust currency, places and examples while you proofread, and consider adding Arabic and English from the same upload.

Brands in Kerala and the Gulf

Ads and product videos in Malayalam reach customers in Kerala and Malayali families in the Gulf. Translate the master, keep the brand name and offer exactly as approved, and download the Malayalam cut for each platform.

Remittance, banking and travel

Financial services, airlines and travel companies serving Malayalis abroad can explain their products in Malayalam, checking every figure and term while they proofread.

Education and creators

Teachers and creators can reach Malayalam speaking students and viewers with lessons and explainers translated from English, keeping the English technical terms students meet in exams.

Film and entertainment

Trailers, short films and series can be voiced in Malayalam for viewers at home and abroad. Lip sync makes actors appear to speak Malayalam; with it off, the original picture stays untouched.

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.
