Wordy

Translates selected text or whole pages on your device, shows dual-language YouTube subtitles and explains words in context for language learners.

What it does

Wordy translates selected text or full pages on your own device and shows bilingual subtitles on YouTube. A contextual dictionary explains words where they appear, which suits language learners.

Key features

  • Translates selected text or whole pages on your device
  • Shows bilingual subtitles on YouTube videos
  • Explains words in context with a built-in dictionary
  • Supports translation between a fixed set of languages

Use cases

  • Reading a foreign-language article with translations
  • Watching YouTube with original and translated subtitles
  • Looking up unfamiliar words while you read

Getting started

Select text to translate it or switch on page translation; on YouTube, turn on bilingual subtitles from the extension.

Good to know

Language support is limited to the languages the extension lists. On-device translation keeps text local but may be less detailed than cloud services.
