+# How to convert bilingual subtitle to monolingual subtitle
+
+# Logic
+
+The english caption line is conventionally placed at the last line of each subtitle block in srt files. So removing the last line of each subtitle block would make the bilingual subtitle a monolingual subtitle. 
+
+# Usage
+> python3 convert_bilingual_monolingual.py -i \<input_file\> -o \<output_file\>
+
+**Example**
+* For instance, the input file name is "test.cn.en.srt", and you name your output file as "output_test.cn.srt" *
+> python3 convert_bilingual_monolingual.py -i test.cn.en.srt -o output_test.cn.srt
