This paper probes into the linguistic impacts the English subtitled videos into Arabic can have on Moroccan learners of English. Given my frequent contact with students as a teacher, I have noticed that they come up with some words which they pick up from watching these types of videos which vary from movies, cartoons, to documentaries. In this paper, I opt for two subtitled videos, which are a cartoon and a documentary, using the research techniques of pre-test and post-test. Before watching these videos, students were given a pretest for each video. The aim of this pretest, which consists of lexical items from the video, is to check those items students do not know. After crossing out the lexical items that students know, I designed a posttest for each video, which consists of three exercises. The first one includes the lexical items the students do not know in the pretest. In the second exercise, students were asked to put these vocabulary items in their appropriate contexts. In the third exercise, they gave any linguistic item such as a word, a phrase, or an expression that they learned from the subtitled video. The results showed that students were able to know the meaning of many lexical items, to use some of them, and to remember some lexical items and their meanings from the subtitled videos. Although the number of these lexical items can be considered as small, I conclude that English subtitled videos into Arabic help students in learning some vocabulary items. Some of the latter can be used in their appropriate contexts.
