Language and script are different decisions
A speaker can mix Hindi and English while the captions use Roman letters or Devanagari. Write a short sample in each script and read it on a phone before deciding. An audience comfortable with Hindi books may prefer Devanagari; another may find Roman Hindi easier. Neither choice suits every viewer.
In Bol Studio, select Hinglish in Caption setup for Roman Hindi, or Hindi for Devanagari. English is a transcription choice, not a promise of Hindi-to-English translation. Review the generated text against the recording.
Keep a spelling decision consistent
Roman Hindi has multiple familiar spellings. Pick the form that fits your voice, such as “nahi” or “nahin”, then keep it consistent. Proper names, product names and English terms deserve a separate listening pass.
Do not shorten the transcript just to make an animation fit. First check that the words represent the speech, then adjust grouping, font size and spacing. For Devanagari, inspect matras and conjuncts at the size viewers will actually see.
The same sentence, two reading choices
Original illustrative copy, not a transcription benchmark or captured automatic output.
| Roman Hindi | Devanagari |
|---|---|
| aaj hum caption timing check karenge | आज हम कैप्शन टाइमिंग चेक करेंगे |
| pehle naam ki spelling dekho | पहले नाम की स्पेलिंग देखो |
| phir video export karo | फिर वीडियो एक्सपोर्ट करो |
The meaning stays the same. Review both spellings and the way mixed English words are represented before choosing a script.
