1. Find the “Captions” Button

• • Look at the bottom of your Zoom screen (the menu bar).
    • Click the Captions (CC) icon.

Note: If you don’t see it, click the three dots (…) labelled “More” first, then select “Captions.”

2. Enable Translations This step is necessary to be able to have captions/transcriptions

Slide the button to the right to activate.

Optional: You can see your original language and translated captions together if you slide the second button

3. Choose Your Language

A menu will appear after clicking the up arrow (^) diamond next to the Captions icon. Pick both of the two:

• • • “My Speaking Language”: 

Select the language you will be speaking (e.g., Spanish).

• • • “Translation To”: Select the language you want to read (e.g., Spanish).

Important: Help AI stay correct!

The AI is very smart, but it can get confused. 

• Speak only in your selected language.

If you switch languages mid-sentence, the captions will become confusing!

• Speak slowly and clearly.

PLEASE NOTE: ONCE YOU SET THIS UP IT WILL REMAIN THE SAME FOR YOUR NEXT SESSION UNTIL YOU CHANGE IT.
