What Are Captions?
Captions are subtitles on YouTube videos that are automatically generated. This means they are not produced by a human and are therefore a ‘rough guide’ to the audio you hear. Although they are not perfect, they can help viewers – especially those with hearing difficulties – catch the main ideas of a video.
