 Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rose here. I've been doing a number of videos recently about learning Hebrew and using popular media to improve Hebrew, which is something I'm a huge believer in using films, TV series, current affairs, programming, that kind of thing, anything like that to learn a language by basically just using captions. And as I explained, I recently made sort of a big breakthrough in discovering that you can now the technology exists that you can automatically translate captions on YouTube desktop. It is a functionality. You just need to go into settings, captions, and you can click on auto translate and it will automatically. So even if the video is only captioned in Hebrew or whatever language you're learning about, let's stick with Hebrew, you can automatically translate those captions into English, French, Russian, German, whatever you want. And that really, really opens up a huge world of material that's helpful for learning as opposed to Hebrew translated into German, Hebrew translated into French, Hebrew translated to English, because there's going to be less of that because it takes a lot of effort and time to produce subtitles. Once you do it, you understand subtitles are kind of a pain in the ass to produce, but they do produce some for Hebrew because you know, for people who are hard of hearing or deaf. And so once you want to these tools, these automatic translation tools are incredible because they allow language learners to basically use all that content that's only subtitled in Hebrew for language learning purposes. And that's why I'm pretty excited about having discovered this. Now, in the course of making these playlists, I've built out a number of playlists for learning Hebrew. I've shared these on Reddit, there's a Reddit community for Hebrew learners called R Hebrew, I recommend this. And I've built out these big playlists of everything I could find subtitled in Hebrew, and just shared it because it's helpful to me, it might be helpful to others. Now a lot of the content I've included has been from can and specifically from their can digital YouTube channel. So I thought I'd take a few moments to explain what is can. So can is the branding for what's what's in English, the Israel Public Broadcasting Corporation or IPBC. In Arabic, its branding is a Macan. But in Hebrew, it's can and in English, it's can as well, it's typically spelled K, typically transliterated K-A-N. Now can is Israel's state broadcaster, which means it's part of the government, it's funded by you and I taxpayers, it's like RTE in Ireland, or Voice of America in the US. Now something that I've firstly, I'm actually a big fan of can, I've been watching their stuff in their series for a number of years, I think it's high quality, their current affairs programming is engaging. But more so than that, I found it interesting that can the weird position of state broadcasters is always that they're funded by the taxpayer, they're part of the establishment. But at the same time can, I think has shown some quite impressive editorial integrity and independence. In terms of putting our program in critical of government decisions, critical of organs government, for instance, one of the can videos I recently watched was a undercover expose. I can't remember which which which of the series it was, it was one of the ones that has subtitles. It was Shetekh which means No Man's Land is actually the translation of Shetekh. But they did like an undercover expose where they showed the lax security as IDF bases, they infiltrated the IDF bases. And it was obviously critical of the army and the IDF is the kind of sacrosanct government body in Israel. So I was quite impressed by that. So I think their stuff is, it's not just kind of, you know, what you might the worst form of state broadcasting, which is in the in the case of, you know, dictatorships like North Korea, it's just mindless propaganda, it's very, very far from that. And it's good stuff as well. So that is what can is it's basically the Israel's public broadcaster in English IPBC. It was founded in 2017 as the successor to IBA. That's what it used to be called the Israel Broadcasting Authority. And under the Netanyahu government, it was reorganized a little bit, and spun out as a it has a new name in English or its new name in Hebrew, IPBC, but can is the one that it uses to brand itself. Now as well as that, it has one TV channel, it's free to air. That means that the signal is broadcast unencrypted, and you don't need a TV license. Anyone who has a TV can pick it up. And that's called can I had a story or can 11. So can operate one TV channel. And they also have on YouTube, they put the a lot of content out. And that's why it's extremely valuable for Hebrew learners. Now I just want to give a show you guys a quick whistle stop tour of the content that I'm talking about. And just to explain what these different channels are. So I just searched in YouTube for can and I filtered on channel. So their main this is the one can digital the first result here has 3000 videos versus 32 for can had a show so there's less on can digital can digital is like the kind of content produced by their digital team. And for whatever reason I presume they're like different teams. This is the one where they add subtitles to a lot of their content. You can see subtitles, subtitles, subtitles, not on all of them, but a lot of them. And that's why I've been building out my playlist based on a lot of what can dig it I'll do. Now there's also other YouTube channels these tend to be so can had a show means can news. So they take the kind of news bulletins they broadcast on can history. And they put them up but they don't typically add YouTube subtitles they tend to embed the subtitles which makes them less useful for Hebrew learners. There's also a can Chinookit which is can educational. There is now kind of had a story actually has its own YouTube channel with a bunch of videos 28,000 videos but again unfortunately for whatever reason for this particular YouTube channel they don't seem to add subtitles. What else is there? There's more YouTube channels if you really want to dig dive into can there's can Calculi which means can their financial or economic programming can Musica can London and there's also Children's TV. Oh, there's also an archive one. So that is basically what it is. The amount of content the up the upload to YouTube is pretty impressive given that there was what 32,000 videos on kind of had a shot and 32,000 videos on kind of had a story plus the 3000 videos on can dig it out in total we're talking about like, you know, 6070,000 I'm including all the other little channels now videos in YouTube much of which are subtitled in Hebrew unfortunately not all of them. And together it just comprises a fantastic reservoir of content for Hebrew learners. Anyway, that's my overview of can if you are learning Hebrew please do check out my playlist. I'll put a link to them in the description. I am constantly adding to them. There's one for Hebrew with English subs. I've done another for Hebrew with Hebrew subs intended for use with other translation. And finally I've created a playlist for just for can digital all their content which is kind of on the longer side typically more than five minutes and which is also subtitled and if you want to just sit down in front of a TV turn on auto subtitle translation watch keep a notepad by your desk pause the TV whenever you see a word you don't know write it down in a notepad or whatever you want to do but it can be a great way to pick up new vocabulary.
