How to Add Turkish Subtitles in DaVinci Resolve
Turkish glues suffixes onto a root to build very long words, and it has two separate letters for i, dotted and dotless, that trip up most text tools. Caption Pro transcribes your timeline with Whisper AI and lets you review the text before it is placed, so those long words and that i stay correct.
Strong transcription, keeps the dotted and dotless i distinct.

Turkish is agglutinative, so a single word can carry a stack of suffixes and grow long, which means smart line breaks help keep captions readable. Whisper transcribes Turkish well, and the review step lets you correct any word it mis-segmented before the captions reach your timeline, changing only the line you edit.
Turkish has letters that need care: the dotless i and dotted i are distinct (ı and i, with capitals I and İ), plus ş, ğ, ç, ö, and ü. All of these render with standard Unicode fonts, so the Text+ templates already in your DaVinci Resolve project display them correctly, and Caption Pro keeps the right form of each i rather than flattening them.
This fits Turkish YouTube, short-form vertical video, tutorials, and content subtitled in Turkish for a wider audience. You can also transcribe in another language and translate into Turkish, or start from Turkish and translate the captions into 100+ languages.
