captions
text presented and synchronized with synchronized media
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/#synchronizedmediadef> to provide not only
the speech, but also non-speech information conveyed through sound,
including meaningful sound effects and identification of speakers
Note 1: In some countries, the term "subtitle" is used to refer to dialogue
only and "captions" is used as the term for dialogue plus sounds and speaker
identification. In other countries, subtitle (or its translation) is used to
refer to both.
Note 2: Video descriptions <http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/#audiodescdef>
can be, but do not need to be, captioned since they are descriptions of
information that is already presented visually.
