This means that you will be able to have video meetings and conferences with users speaking in up to 12 different languages and you will be able to understand them, and they will be able to understand you. There is, however, a slight catch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When this impressive update rolls out to Zoom users, it <strong>will only be premium users<\/strong> that will be able to access and take advantage of it. In fact, not even all premium users will be able to use it as there will <strong>also be an added premium payment required<\/strong> on top of the subscription fee to access the new translated captions feature. The price will be <strong>$5 a month per user<\/strong>, on top of the user\u2019s subscription fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At launch, the translated captions feature <strong>will support Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Ukrainian<\/strong>. The beta version will also include <strong>Mandarin, Japanese and Korean<\/strong> . As well as displaying the captions in real-time to facilitate communication during the meeting, the <strong>captions will also be added to the transcript<\/strong> of the meeting too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find the full instructions about how to use this interesting new feature over at the Zoom <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.zoom.us\/translated-captions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blog post<\/a> the company published to announce the update.
