Khan video's in other languages

< Translate

Status
In 2019 Google announces speech translation via IA. See speech translation for more info. Is this development on the agenda of the Khan tribe?

Introduction
On this page you can find more information about translating Khan video's. If you want to go live in another language you need to translate a lot of text. You also need to create new video content for the math module (see red square in screenshot below) and three subjects of your choice.



Automatic translation is not an option because in the video's (see example) you also see the platform.

Next actions
