🌍 MineTranslator
MineTranslator is a client-side Minecraft translation mod for Fabric.
Play on multilingual servers without language barriers. MineTranslator can translate chat messages, player messages, NPC dialogue, item names, tooltips, lore, and more — directly inside Minecraft.
No server installation is required. Install it on your client and start playing! ✨
