jajaTranslator

jajaTranslator is a Spanish ↔ English chat translator that works entirely in-game. WoW addons can't access the internet, so instead of Google Translate this ships its own built-in dictionary — ~2,500 words and ~700 phrases, curated specifically for how people actually talk in WoW: LFG spam, trade chat, dungeon callouts, and buff requests. It gives you the gist of a message instantly, without ever leaving the game.

Automatic translation

When someone speaks Spanish in say, yell, whispers, party, raid, guild, battlegrounds, or a numbered channel, a dimmed translation appears directly under their message:

[1. General] [Marisol]: alguien para las minas de la muerte? necesito tanque y sanador -> anyone for deadmines? I need tank and healer

No clicks needed. Toggle it off any time if you prefer chat untouched.

Translator window

Open with /jaja. Type or paste text, hit Translate, and flip direction between Spanish → English and English → Spanish with one click. The To Chat button drops your translation into the chat box ready to send — you always review and press Enter yourself. The window also collects the last 20 Spanish messages it detected: click any of them to load and translate, hover to see the full text.

Built for actual gameplay

The dictionary covers the Spanish that matters in a group:

• LFG & trade — busco grupo, se busca tanque, falta uno, cuanto cuesta, se vende
• Combat callouts — tanquea al jefe, provoca al bicho, sal del fuego, esperen al tanque, no peguen todavía, calavera primero
• Raid marks — skull/calavera, cross/cruz, moon/luna, square/cuadrado, and the rest
• Real spell names from the Spanish client — a Spanish-speaking player asks for entereza, not "Fortitude"; jajaTranslator knows entereza, intelecto arcano, marca de lo salvaje, bendición de reyes, ansia de sangre, and the other commonly requested buffs
• Chat shorthand both ways — int, fort, motw, ss, porfa, jaja, xq, ntp

Slash commands

• /jaja (or /ct, /translate) — open/close the translator window
• /tr <english text> — quick-translate to Spanish, straight into your chat box
• /ct auto on|off — toggle automatic translation of incoming chat
• /ct test <spanish text> — simulate an incoming Spanish message to see how it works
• /ct help — command list

What to expect

This is word-and-phrase translation, not a fluent human translator — think "gets the point across," which is exactly what you need for necesito un sanador para mazmorra. Perfect grammar isn't the goal; playing together is. Found a message it garbled or missed? Report it in the comments and the dictionary grows.
