text of speech on screen
Words at the bottom of a movie or video that show what people say, often in another language.
用法パターン：
to watch [something] with [language] subtitles
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse 'subtitles' with 'dubbing'. 'Subtitles' are written words on the screen, while 'dubbing' is replacing the original speech with a different recorded voice in another language.
類義語
captions (Often used for same-language onscreen text, especially for accessibility; in some regions it overlaps with 'subtitles'.)
|
closed captions (More technical; usually refers to subtitles that include sound effects and are made for deaf or hard-of-hearing viewers.)

to add subtitles to video
To put the spoken words of a movie or video on the screen as text, usually in another language.
用法パターン：
to subtitle [a film / video] (in [language])
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes say *'translate subtitles a film'* instead of 'subtitle a film'. The verb 'subtitle' already includes the idea of translating and adding text, so say 'subtitle a film', not 'translate subtitles a film'.
類義語
caption (In video production contexts, 'caption' can mean to provide onscreen text, but it is more associated with accessibility features.)
|
translate (Focuses on changing the language; does not specifically mean adding text to a screen.)

secondary, explanatory title line
Extra words under the main title of a book, film, or article that give more information about it.
用法パターン：
the subtitle '[phrase]' of [a book / film]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse this meaning with screen subtitles and may say things like *'I read the subtitle during the movie'* when they mean the onscreen text of the dialogue. For books and articles, 'subtitle' is the extra line of the title, usually printed on the cover or first page.
類義語
tagline (Often more promotional or catchy, especially for movies and advertising, rather than purely descriptive.)
|
strapline (Mainly British English; similar to 'tagline' and sometimes used like a subtitle in marketing contexts.)
