How it works
Reading
- Pick a novel and press Start reading. Chapters open in your language when a translation exists, otherwise in English or the original.
- Open Display to change font, size, page colour and spacing. Open Terms to replace a word with your own spelling (English only).
- Click or select a word for its meaning. In Chinese text this shows pinyin and the dictionary entry; in English text it shows the matching part of the original paragraph.
- Log in to keep a library, folders, reading progress, bookmarks and history on every device.
- Change the language of the site from the header, and the language of the chapter from the reader bar.
Translating
- Press Translate in my browser on a chapter without a translation, or open Translate and start the translation.
- Your browser downloads the model once (about 1 GB, kept in the browser) and translates on your graphics card. You need Chrome or Edge on a desktop computer.
- A chapter you request is served first, by your own translator window; it is never queued behind other requests.
- The text is checked on the server for untranslated Chinese, repetition loops and broken quotes, then published. Suspicious results go to a moderator.
Terms and quality
Each novel has a community glossary of names. It is sent to the model with every chapter so names stay consistent. Readers can vote on translations and propose edits.
