About Idiomatic
Problem
When writing across languages, literal translations of idioms sound awkward or unnatural. Most translators give word-for-word results instead of real cultural equivalents.
Solution
Contextual Idiom Translator detects rough or bracketed phrases as you type and suggests culturally appropriate idioms that fit the surrounding sentence.
Key Features
• Real-time suggestions in editable text fields
• Supports English, Spanish, and French
• Uses surrounding context to choose the right target language
• Prefers a curated idiom database before AI fallback
• Local processing option (privacy-friendly)
• Multiple suggestions when useful
How it works
1. Type or paste text containing a rough idiom or [bracketed phrase]
2. The extension analyzes the phrase + surrounding sentence
3. You get natural, culturally appropriate alternatives
Who it’s for
Writers, translators, language learners, and bilingual professionals who want their writing to sound natural, not translated.
Coming soon
More languages, improved handling of incomplete idioms, and easier setup options.
