Translation
Auto-translate messages between languages using flag reactions.
Translation
Hubdustry's Translation module enables instant message translation. Members can react with a country flag emoji to translate any message into the corresponding language.
How It Works
- A member sends a message in any language
- Another member reacts with a flag emoji (e.g., 🇻🇳 for Vietnamese)
- Hubdustry detects the flag and translates the message
- The translation is posted as a reply or embed
Supported Languages
Translation supports 100+ languages via the translation engine. Common flag mappings:
| Flag | Language |
|---|---|
| 🇺🇸 / 🇬🇧 | English |
| 🇻🇳 | Vietnamese |
| 🇯🇵 | Japanese |
| 🇰🇷 | Korean |
| 🇫🇷 | French |
| 🇩🇪 | German |
