Regional and dialect review checklist

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

Regional checks

  • Use separate Portuguese exports for Brazilian PT and European PT when wording differs.
  • If your Portuguese audience spans Brazil and Portugal, publish separate caption exports when terminology differs.
  • For Portuguese, keep diacritics and accents consistent across the whole timeline.
  • For film edits, time Portuguese captions to dialogue beats instead of cut points.
  • Keep a small Portuguese glossary for names, places, and brand terms before your final QA pass.

Dialect checks

  • Decide upfront between Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese phrasing.
  • Keep verb forms and spelling consistent for the entire video.
  • If you target both regions, publish separate subtitle exports.
  • For mixed Portuguese audiences across Brazil and Portugal, avoid region-only slang unless it is intentional.
  • Keep one spelling standard per video so Portuguese captions feel consistent.

Best use cases for Portuguese captions

  • Documentary and narrative edits
  • Festival submissions and wider distribution
  • Dialogue-heavy scenes where clarity matters

Quick tips for cleaner Portuguese captions

  • For films: keep subtitles minimal and timed to dialogue beats.
  • Do one quick pass for spelling + names, then ship.
  • Keep accents/diacritics intact—small marks change meaning in Portuguese.
  • Shorter lines read better on mobile; split long sentences into two captions.
  • Avoid leaving long lines on screen too briefly—split them instead.
