Choose between following speech and reading a translation
Yle’s accessibility help describes programme captioning as Finnish text for Finnish programmes and Swedish text for Swedish programmes. Its separate track guide names translation subtitles differently. This distinction matters to a Finnish learner or someone watching without sound: readable Finnish captions can support following the original speech even when no English translation is offered.
Read the full menu label
The publisher’s track guide identifies Ohjelmatekstitys, Käännöstekstitys and the Swedish label Översättning. Its accessibility instructions also show mobile and television labels that include the language code or language name. Read the complete entry on the intended item. A Finnish interface does not establish that an English track exists, and selecting a translation category should not be confused with changing the app’s navigation language.
Open the player controls on the actual device
Yle’s help describes revealing controls on mobile by touching the video and using the subtitle icon, with television controls reached by the remote. Browser controls can look different. Use the icon and labels in the current player rather than assuming the same screen position across every app. Keep the episode fixed when comparing choices so a different item’s provision does not confuse the result.
Adjust readability separately from language
The accessibility page describes subtitle size and background adjustments on mobile and smart-TV apps. Those settings affect how an available track looks; they do not create a missing translation. Choose the intended text first, then inspect a dialogue passage from the actual viewing position. This article explains Yle’s published terminology and controls without certifying caption accuracy or testing a particular television.
