Regional and dialect review checklist

Use this pass after generation to keep wording natural for your target audience.

Regional checks

  • If your Lingala audience spans Congo - Kinshasa and Congo - Brazzaville, publish separate caption exports when terminology differs.
  • For Lingala, keep diacritics and accents consistent across the whole timeline.
  • For short clips, keep each Lingala caption to one concise idea.
  • Keep a small Lingala glossary for names, places, and brand terms before your final QA pass.

Dialect checks

  • For mixed Lingala audiences across Congo - Kinshasa and Congo - Brazzaville, avoid region-only slang unless it is intentional.
  • Keep one spelling standard per video so Lingala captions feel consistent.
  • Maintain a reusable glossary for repeated Lingala terms across episodes.

Best use cases for Lingala captions

  • Repurposing long videos into captioned highlights
  • Hook-driven edits where captions keep the message clear on mute
  • Shorts/Reels/TikTok clips that need fast, readable captions

Quick tips for cleaner Lingala captions

  • Keep accents/diacritics intact—small marks change meaning in Lingala.
  • Do one quick pass for spelling + names, then ship.
  • For short clips: aim for 1–2 short lines max; punchy captions perform better.
  • Trim filler words (“um”, “like”) so captions feel clean and fast.
  • Shorter lines read better on mobile; split long sentences into two captions.
