Hidden subtitles can be turned off. They’re added to the video stream as text or images. A separate type of subtitles is pre-rendered subtitles which are encoded as images. They are used on DVD and Blu-ray.

What’s the use of subtitles?

Watching films in a foreign language with subtitles can be very useful when learning a language. You have the opportunity to listen to native speakers and try to catch intonations and pronunciation. And if you don’t understand something in the dialogues, subtitles are a great helper, because you can immediately and quickly find out what it’s all about.

Besides, it’s a good way to study new vocabulary, because unfamiliar words can be put into your vocabulary, and later you can find their translation and memorize it. And agree, no matter how professional the voiceover is, it’s always more pleasant and interesting to listen to the real voice actors, rather than dubbing.

However, subtitles can be useless if they are misused, i.e. used inappropriately. It is always important to remember that the text at the bottom of the screen serves only as an aid to watching the movie. You must concentrate your attention, that is, draw it primarily to the listening, in other words, practice listening skills. Agree that you won’t listen carefully to the dialogues or the actors’ lines if your eyes are “glued” to the subtitles.
