How to translate Discord DMs and group chats

Step 1: add Talksy to your account

Open the account install link and choose Add to my apps. You don't need to own a server or ask anyone's permission, and the person you're talking to doesn't need to install anything.

Step 2: translate a message you received

1. Right-click the message on desktop, or long-press it on your phone.
2. Choose Apps, then Translate Message.
3. The translation appears just for you, in your language.

Step 3: translate what you want to send

Write your reply with /translate in the same chat. Talksy shows you the translation privately; copy it into your message.

/translate text:See you at 8 tonight! to:japanese

What works in DMs, and what doesn't

• Works: right-click Translate Message and /translate, in one-to-one DMs and group chats, on desktop, web and mobile.
• Doesn't: automatic translation and flag reactions. Those need Talksy in a server, because they post into the channel, and DMs don't allow that.
• Limits: 100 right-click and /translate translations a month on the free plan, reset on the 1st (or early with a top.gg vote). Talksy Pro makes them unlimited.

Talking with someone in a server instead? There, Talksy can translate automatically and post each translation under the speaker's name. See how to translate on Discord.
