YouTube wants to help you make your videos available to everyone in the world, no matter what language they speak.  To that end, today they’ve announced that it’s now easier than ever to translate your videos captions into more than 300 languages.

Jeff Chin and Brad Ellis, YouTube product managers, write on the YouTube Creators Blog that, “Growing a global audience on YouTube means having your videos reach many people, speaking many languages.”  That’s why, starting today, you can easily translate your own video captions or enlist the help of your multi-lingual friends to do the work for you.

Before you can start translating captions, you’ll have to set up a caption track for your video.
