When we published Welcome to The Family History Guide and The Inside Story, we also included Spanish versions of both videos. Now we have added Spanish-language versions of 14 more Guided Learning videos, including all of the I Have a Question videos.

The translations, and the original videos, are produced on the Synthesia platform, which does an amazing job of synchronizing text input, facial movements of AI characters, and expert language pronunciation. The resulting videos look and sound natural. For Spanish, some of the background graphics in the videos have been updated to better fit the language experience.

Coming soon, we also plan to have French and Portuguese versions of many of the Guided Learning videos.

Here are the updated videos, with the English and Spanish versions listed:
