Abstract
One embodiment of the present disclosure sets forth a technique for generating translation suggestions. The technique includes receiving a sequence of source-language subtitle events associated with a content item, where each source-language subtitle event includes a different textual string representing a corresponding portion of the content item, generating a unit of translatable text based on a textual string included in at least one source-language subtitle event from the sequence, translating, via software executing on a machine, the unit of translatable text into target-language text, generating, based on the target-language text, at least one target-language subtitle event associated with a portion of the content item corresponding to the at least one source-language subtitle event, and generating, for display, a subtitle presentation template that includes the at least one target-language subtitle event.
