Roman Punjabi Subtitle Generator — Roman Punjabi Captions (SRT)

Creators who speak Punjabi often need two caption styles: Roman Punjabi in Latin letters for Reels, Shorts, and fast edits, and Punjabi in Gurmukhi when the audience expects the native script. Desi Subtitles supports both from the same Punjabi audio — pick the script before you generate.

What is a Roman Punjabi subtitle generator?

A Roman Punjabi subtitle generator transcribes Punjabi speech into timed captions written with the Latin alphabet. It is not an English translation. English loanwords stay in English spelling; Punjabi words are romanised the way creators already type in chats and comments.

Roman Punjabi (Roman)
Hey guys, ki haal aa? Nave video vich swagat aa.

Same speech in Punjabi: ਹੈਲੋ ਗਾਈਜ਼, ਕੀ ਹਾਲ ਆ? ਨਵੇਂ ਵੀਡੀਓ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਵਾਗਤ ਆ।

Why creators choose Roman Punjabi

  • Faster to skim and edit in Premiere, CapCut, and browser timelines when the editor prefers Latin letters
  • Matches how many Punjabi speakers already write online (comments, WhatsApp, scripts)
  • Keeps English words like video, subscribe, and brand names readable without forcing them into Gurmukhi
  • Punjabi remains available when the publish target expects Gurmukhi
