“Closed captions include spoken dialogue and non-speech audio cues, such as sound effects, speaker identification, or music cues, making them accessible to viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing. Subtitles, on the other hand, generally only display spoken dialogue and are primarily used to translate content for viewers who speak a different language. Learn more about the differences.”
