English to Slugspeak (Translator by Popsicle; language by Silver)

Slugspeak is a made-up language made to imagine how the slugcats of Rain World would speak if they had a proper native language. The language is derived from Slugsign, a slugcat sign language made by Bitsbug on Tumblr. It was then adapted into a proper language by Silver of the Rain World: Animated Discord server. Since then, the language has been growing and growing. Our goal is to allow this small conlang to develop and become a real, fully-usable language!

**Due to some issues with synonyms, reverse translation may not always be fully accurate.

IMPORTANT: When translating English to Slugspeak, do not use determiners (e.g a/an) in sentences! Slugspeak does NOT use determiners, so attempting to translate them will cause confusion! For example, if you want to say “I am a slugcat,” you will have to write it as “I slugcat.” Sorry for any potential inconvenience caused by this!

I will be frequently updating this. Changes may apply some time after they are actually implemented due to delays in the site.

Major updates: [8/20/24 - Translator released] [8/20/24 - Plurals added for most nouns] [8/21/24 - Fixed that pesky capitalization issue] [8/21/24 - added colors, numbers, and plenty more words] [9/11/24 - added ~50 new words, changed some words]
