EnglishLinks — English Names for Your WoW Links

Playing World of Warcraft in a non-English client? EnglishLinks automatically displays supported WoW links using their English names.

EnglishLinks is designed for players who use a non-English WoW client but regularly communicate with the international WoW community, follow English guides, use Wowhead, WeakAuras, Discord, or simply prefer seeing the original English terminology.

⚠️ Important

The English language data must be installed in your World of Warcraft client for EnglishLinks to work correctly.
