The Auto-translated subtitles are based on machine translation, but are in the high end of currently available auto-translators.

It is not possible to download or store/correct the automatic translations.

If a country/NA requires a better translation of the subtitles, they may provide their own translation based on the English text, which can be provided by DG EAC Training Team via a VTT text file.
