We Produce Professional Macedonian Subtitles with SRT Files
Cater to Macedonian speakers in style with professional Macedonian subtitles.
While there are more than 7,000 languages spoken in the world, most are small and only spoken by hundreds or thousands of people. English dominates the world as the most widely spoken language—but still, most people don’t speak English. If you make your creative works available only in English, you’re cutting yourself off from the 83% of the world that doesn’t speak English, but investing in subtitling services for languages like Macedonian can help you break into untapped new markets.
We at TranscriptionServices.com stay on the pulse of the global linguistic situation, working with languages big and small all around the world. That includes Macedonian, which is a bigger language than you may initially think. While many Macedonians do speak English, many also don’t—and besides, all Macedonians would rather consume content effortlessly in their native tongue. Our Macedonian subtitling services give you the power to cater to this demographic, with our experts providing industry-standard SRT files to make embedding your Macedonian subtitles as easy as possible.
Macedonian subtitles allow you to reach people in North Macedonia and beyond.
Macedonian is the official and national language of the Republic of North Macedonia, and most people in the Balkan country speak it as their mother tongue. But Macedonian’s estimated 3.5 million native speakers aren’t all inhabitants of North Macedonia—you’ll find some of them scattered across parts of Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as in immigrant communities in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
The power of subtitles doesn’t lie only in their ability to accommodate Macedonian speakers who don’t understand English at a sufficiently high level to appreciate your work—they also allow you to tap into the overlooked demographic of deaf and hard-of-hearing Macedonian speakers. In fact, we can also make Macedonian closed captions, which include descriptions of non-language-based sounds, if you prefer. These are also useful to any Macedonian speaker watching your video without audio, which may happen if someone’s tuning in from a public space, for instance.
Macedonian: a particularly noteworthy language within the Slavic family
Like most other languages in Eastern Europe, Macedonian comes from the Slavic language family, which features such major languages as Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish. While Macedonian shares many features with these big-name Slavic languages, it’s actually very different. Occupying the South Slavic branch of Slavic languages, Macedonian’s closest relative is neighboring Bulgarian—both contain numerous features that deviate from typical Slavic conventions.
Slavic languages are notorious for their extensive morphological inflection, a result of the intersection of their numerous genders and cases. Macedonian shares the three genders typical of Slavic languages—masculine, feminine, and neuter—but it’s lost the infamous Slavic case system, meaning Macedonian exhibits far less inflection than most of its neighbors. Another major way that Macedonian differentiates itself from other Slavic languages is in its definite articles (equivalent to English “the”), which are absent from all other languages in the family other than Bulgarian. Macedonian marks definiteness by attaching a suffix to the end of a noun, with different suffixes depending on the gender of the noun. Macedonian also makes a three-way proximity distinction in its definite articles, with proximate, distal, and unspecified definite suffixes for all genders. Verbs are conjugated according to the person, making subject pronouns generally redundant. So, it goes without saying that Macedonian is a complex language, so Macedonian subtitling services are best left to the professionals.
