Lyrics in subtitle, yes or not.

Sat Nov 28, 2020 10:41 am

Some translators think that music should not be placed in the subtitle. On the contrary, I think it should, because the music is part of the movie, and the lyrics can't always be found. Rarely is the whole song, but only a part of it, probably the director wants to emphasize the plot of the movie, therefore, it should be considered an integral part of the movie. Please see also forum.opensubtitles.org/viewtopic.php?p=44717&sid=b284adbeb987e5833d389aaac16819b1#p44717
I am disappointed that no one helped me.
It's just a few minutes of work for you.

How do you know it's take only a few minutes?
It is not always easy to find lyrics for these songs.
If nobody yet helped you, it’s because they also don’t know.
I've searched but i can't find lyrics for that music.
Hope someone can help you..

I didn't mean to search, I can do it alone and find if exist... people whose native luangvage is English can write a text in few minutes when it does not exist.

Don't you think if it was just like you say, the lyrics were already translated?
Since it's a matter of a "few minutes".
If it were so, you would find that on any music lyrics site.
