The study highlights how the translator employed Generalization, Direct Translation, and Substitution strategies.
Generalization was identified as the most frequently used strategy for clarity and brevity in subtitles.

Findings indicate that while Generalization suited the spatial dimension, subtitle readability was compromised due to fast display.
