Description
Bilingual YouTube subtitles: original captions plus a translated line. Supports DailyWire. Click a word to translate it. Litancy shows two subtitle lines on a video: the video's own captions, and a translation into the language you are learning. Click any word on either line and a small popup shows its translation; the video pauses while you read. WHAT IT DOES • Two-line subtitles drawn inside the player, so they stay on screen in fullscreen. • A round button at the top-right of the player opens the settings menu: on/off, translate-to language (Polish, Chinese, Spanish, Japanese and more), caption language, translation engine, line toggles and font size. • Click a word on the original line to translate it into your target language, or a word on the translated line to translate it back. One popup at a time. Optional link to Diki (Polish) or Wiktionary. • Detects the caption language of the video and shows it in the menu. • Translations are prefetched a few captions ahead and cached per video. WHERE IT WORKS • YouTube — manual captions preferred, auto-generated captions as fallback. • DailyWire episodes (Mux player). • More sites can be added; the code is open. TRANSLATION ENGINES (no key needed) • Google Translate public endpoints • Lingva (Google mirror) • MyMemory • Your own LibreTranslate server (optional) If one engine is unavailable, Litancy falls back to the next. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO No sign-up, no subscription, no AI back end, no analytics, no data collection. Caption text is sent only to the translation service you pick. See the privacy policy for details. Litancy is an original, open project and is not affiliated with any other subtitle extension, YouTube, DailyWire, or Google.
