Translators

Phrase-list translators for slang and office speak.

These translators swap phrases from a fixed, hand-checked word list. They are not AI and they do not guess. If a phrase is on the list, it gets swapped. If it is not, your words stay exactly as you typed them. Everything runs in your browser, and nothing you paste is sent anywhere.

Each tool page explains how the matching works, what the list covers, and where it falls short. When you want the full meaning of a word, the slang dictionary has the details.

Which translator to use

  • Gen Z slang translator: for texts, comments and captions. It works in both directions, plain English to slang and slang to plain English, from a list of 125 terms.
  • Corporate jargon translator: for meeting notes, all-hands emails and LinkedIn posts. About 200 phrases, from "circle back" to "proven track record".
  • Email subtext decoder: for the message that felt a bit off. It flags about 110 loaded phrases, explains the usual reading of each, and says how confident that reading is.

Why phrase lists and not AI?

A list is predictable. The same sentence gives the same result every time, and you can see exactly why a word was swapped. It also means nothing has to leave your device. The trade-off is that the tools cannot read context, irony or brand-new slang. Each tool page lists its blind spots, so you know when to trust the output and when to look the word up.

Privacy

None of the translators send your text anywhere. The matching runs in the page, so it works on a work laptop without uploading anything. Details are in the privacy policy.
