Hey- I'm currently in a campaign with the Ythryn city and their language is Netherese/Loross- Draconic is the closest thing to it but an actual translator if anyone could find that would be nice! Also heads up the goblin translator isn't accesible for me so idk if thats for everyone but yeah
I'm trying to get a set of links together that have at least "competent" translators from Common to the many other languages of D&D. My plan is to just throw another level of immersion in my campaigns by having myself and the player(s) who speaks that language speak and send each other our translated phrases to verbally speak in the language while the others don't actually know what's being said. Of course the player/character can translate if they want, but I just wanted that extra "oomph" to the languages in 5e.
Most of those are from lingojam.com because it kept popping up for each individual google search. Obviously they aren't perfect, or official translators, but they will satisfy the need that I have.
If anyone else has any links to decent translators for any of the languages, that would be useful to my cause, please send them!
Excellent find! I am SO grateful to have a way to easily transliterate the Draconic language, even thought it looks like I still have to copy and paste the individual characters... Up to this point, I've been drawing every character of my written messages in MS Paint!
Google Translate is my friend for this, if you go through you can find some really interesting sounding languages. It means you can have a whole message in english and then auto translate with all the grammar etc.

I have compiled a bit more languages/translators so here.
Giant: The Giant Tongue Translator ― LingoJam
Gnomish: Gnomish Translator ― LingoJam
Halfling: Isho's Halfling Translator ― LingoJam
Deep Speech: Espruar (Deepspeech) Translator ― LingoJam
Sylvan: Sylvan Translator ― LingoJam
Aquan: Aquan Translator
Auran: Auran 5e translator ― LingoJam
Druidic(Partial): partial Druidic Translator
there you go.
Do you have any translators that translate into the actual runes? Like with the unique symbols?
If you're looking for transliterations, https://www.fantasytranslator.com/ offers Elvish, Dwarvish, and Draconic alphabets. You could also use https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Iokharic for the Draconic alphabet, but you would have to write the words out on MS Paint or something. There is also https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Infernal_language and https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Barazhad for Infernal and Primordial/Abyssal, respectively, for more MS Paint shenanigans.
You could also just have AI change each letter to a strange character or symbol.
You could also have AI actually become an NPC and speak any language you want, as as a dedicated entity.
You can also download a font for a lot of these alphabets. So Translate then just change fonts
The link to the Goblin language one doesn't seem to work on my end. Idk about others
You mean ”Am am goamng to the store”.
我认为精灵用的是汉语
I think the elves use Chinese

Everyone knows Drow speak German... (at least in my games ;-) )
RPGs from '83 - 03. A fair bit of LRP. A big gap. And now DMing again. Froth.
