Here's a YouTube tip for you thanks to follower Li. It's an auto-translate feature. Quite a few foreign YouTube videos do provide English captions, available when you click on the CC icon in the lower right menu bar, but a lot do not. That's when auto-translate comes in handy.
To turn it on you first need to click on the gear icon. Then click on "Subtitles".
Select "Auto-translate". I happened to be viewing a Japanese video for this sample so the default was "Japanese".
Then click on "English". And that's it.
The translation might be very rough depending on how fast and clearly the person is speaking, but it can provide you with an idea of what's going on. I love this feature. Thank you Li!!
