Conclusion
If you are facing any further difficulties with the language options of the Disney plus options, you can reach out to Disney plus support. Some older movies or TV series don’t come with subtitles, so don’t expect much from them.
Recent TV series and movies usually support subtitles in Italian, Spanish, French, German, and English. Disney plus plans to add more languages like Portuguese, Hindi, Mandarin, which is likely to happen when Disney launches operations in these countries.
Some streaming boxes don’t have the option that allows you to change the audio or subtitle language, so make sure you check the supported devices and the site they support.
Why did my Disney plus language change when I didn’t change it myself?
This is serious as it implies that your account is compromised. Ensure your payment details are secured and get in touch with customer support to fix the problem.
Is it possible for my child to learn English through Disney Plus?
Disney Plus is mainly for kids and is a great way to get them interested in English if it is not their native language. The same applies to other languages too. They’d pick up many English words but they might not fully learn the language if there’s no one to interact with.
