The transcription

All videos have a transcription. On most videos, the transcription is synchronised in a karaoke-like fashion. This means that the words you hear in the video are highlighted in the transcript as you go along.

The transcript can be displayed from a button below the video. On the website, you can move the transcript to different places on the screen. 

Subtitles

Subtitles are disabled by default to promote listening comprehension. They can be activated from the video player when they are available. Most videos have subtitles. These are French subtitles. The subtitles for the videos in the "First Class" course are translated into several languages.

Note

Only use the transcript and subtitles when necessary, to clear up a difficulty for example. If you always watch a video with a transcript or subtitles, you won't improve your listening comprehension effectively. This is a learning support tool only.
