For these fan translators, it's all about accessibility and getting their favorite acts more global love.

The same goes with the ALAMAT Translation Team, with Gwy explaining that most of these Translator’s Notes can be found at the top part of their subtitled videos. I want to make international fans feel like they’re also in on the joke. I don’t want to let them feel left out. In that way, they can also laugh along or they can also understand the context of what the members are talking about,” she said.

Gwy also emphasized that their team is not limited to just translating Filipino to English. Since ALAMAT features several other local languages in their discography, Gwy’s group recognized the need to translate these as well, since not all Filipino fans are fluent in other local tongues. Gwy recalled that when they were establishing their team, one of their main priorities was finding translators who were fluent in other local languages. Gwy is fluent in Bicolano, while her other team members are fluent in Bisaya, Waray, and Ilocano, among others.

In their videos, they usually specify what language a subtitle is in so that both local and international fans understand that a specific ALAMAT member is not talking in Filipino. One of their hardest translating experiences, for instance, was for ALAMAT’s song “Hala,” because they didn’t know any fan who was fluent in the Sambal language of Zambales. They were only able to provide correct translations for that specific verse after reaching out to ALAMAT member Moe himself.

Gwy added that ALAMAT’s foreign fans also reassure them that they don’t need to rush their work: “They’re never demanding and they constantly compliment us.”kapag nakikita kong na-enjoy nila at grateful pa ‘yung mga international fans sa pag-translate naminJanelle shared that some fans have even offered her monetary gifts as a way to thank her, while foreign video reactors on YouTube also give her shoutouts on their platform.
