Description
Translate Discord messages with romaji, pinyin & hangul romanization. Built for language learners. BYOK or free Google. Discord Translator+ turns every Discord chat into a living language-learning playground. Unlike generic translators, Discord Translator+ is built for people who actually want to read and learn the language — not just see what was said in English. Foreign-language messages are translated inline AND shown alongside their romanized pronunciation, so you learn vocabulary and pronunciation in the flow of normal conversation. ═══════════════════════════════════════ WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT ═══════════════════════════════════════ ✦ ROMAJI for Japanese — see "Konnichiwa" alongside "こんにちは" ✦ PINYIN for Chinese — see "nǐ hǎo" alongside "你好" ✦ HANGUL romanization for Korean — see "annyeong" alongside "안녕" ✦ Per-language display modes: translation only, transliteration only, side-by-side, or all three stacked ✦ Per-language layouts: inline, multi-line, or compact ✦ Picks up automatically — no buttons to click, no copy-paste ═══════════════════════════════════════ HOW IT WORKS ═══════════════════════════════════════ 1. Install the extension 2. Open Discord in Chrome 3. Foreign-language messages get translated and romanized in place — instantly That's it. Customize what shows and how it's laid out per-language in the options page. ═══════════════════════════════════════ TWO TRANSLATION BACKENDS ═══════════════════════════════════════ 🟢 GOOGLE (default, free, no setup) Uses Google's public translation endpoint. No account, no key, no signup. Works out of the box for over 100 languages. Romaji and pinyin still appear because we generate them client-side using wanakana and pinyin-pro libraries — no server round-trip needed. 🟣 GEMINI (BYOK — bring your own key) Plug in your own free Google Gemini API key for noticeably better translation of slang, idioms, and casual chat. Gemini reads context better, so "lol that was so based" gets translated correctly instead of literally. Get a free Gemini key at aistudio.google.com (1500 requests/day free tier — way more than most users need). ═══════════════════════════════════════ PRIVACY ═══════════════════════════════════════ • No accounts, no signups, no telemetry • Your messages go directly from your browser to your chosen translation backend (Google or Gemini) — never to us • Settings sync via Chrome's built-in sync so you keep them across devices • Translation cache is stored locally in your browser ═══════════════════════════════════════ SUPPORTED LANGUAGES ═══════════════════════════════════════ Translation: 100+ languages including Japanese, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Korean, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Turkish, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Hindi, and many more. Romanization: Japanese (romaji via wanakana), Chinese (pinyin with tone marks via pinyin-pro), Korean (Revised Romanization with liaison handling), Russian / Ukrainian / Bulgarian (BGN/PCGN-style Cyrillic romanization), Hebrew (consonant skeleton; vowel-pointed text is supported), Arabic / Persian / Urdu (consonant skeleton; full diacritic support), Thai (RTGS-flavored char-by-char with leading-vowel reordering — output is marked "(approximate)" because tone classes and complex vowel frames need a syllabifier we haven't shipped yet). ═══════════════════════════════════════ USEFUL FOR ═══════════════════════════════════════ • Learning Japanese while watching VTuber Discord servers • Following K-pop, anime, or gaming communities in their original languages • Practicing Chinese in cdrama / Genshin / Honkai Discord communities • Translating multi-language gaming servers without breaking flow • Reading what your international Discord friends actually said, not just what Google guesses ═══════════════════════════════════════ FREE FOREVER, DONATIONS WELCOME ═══════════════════════════════════════ Discord Translator+ is and will remain free. There's no paywall, no daily limit on translations, no premium tier locking features. If the extension is useful to you and you want to support continued development, you can buy me a coffee on Ko-fi — but translation will always work whether you donate or not.
