Translation tools that I'm using

May 7, 2023

In this chance, it would be good to introduce some translation tools and some similar things I use to read and write in foreign languages on the web.

Google Translation, based on Google Chrome
- Homepage Link
- Almost people are using this nowadays, right?
- Google does not say “Don'be evil” more. It makes me very sad. But their tool is still solid and popular.
DeepL
- Homepage Link
- Good quality.
TWP: Firefox plugin
- Github Link
- Firefox Addon Page Link
- My primary web browser is Firefox. (There is no other option. Only Firefox could handle hundreds of tabs smoothly!)
- Until now, the UX of this addon is the most satisfying to me, within the translate addon.
- For a while after Google restricted the translation API, Firefox users had to find their own way. It seems to be working fine now.
Grammarly
- Homepage Link
- Irregular and conventional elements of language, such as the definite article, are not easy enemies of foreign language users. This app is helpful to be against these enemies, wonderfully.
Naver Whale
- Homepage Link
- Chrome based web-browser, has an image translation feature. Sometimes useful.
