Translate an epub book into your language
Have an .epub in a language you do not master? Open it on subany.site and read it translated, chapter by chapter, without uploading it anywhere.
Open your book on subany.site
Drag the file in or pick it from your device. It is read in your browser and never uploaded.
How it works
Open subany.site, drag the .epub in or pick it from your device and choose the translation language. Before starting, the site tells you how many words it has and how long it expects to take. You can translate it all or just the chapter you are reading.
Read while it translates
The translation appears next to the original, paragraph by paragraph, with the book’s table of contents to move between chapters. You can make the text larger and hide the original when you do not need it.
Take it with you as .epub
When it is done, or whenever you like, download it as .epub: it is rebuilt from the original, with the translation in place. Also as .txt.
Limits
Epubs with DRM do not open. It is machine translation: good for understanding, not for publishing.
Frequently asked questions
Is my epub uploaded?
No. It is read and translated in your browser.
How long does it take?
With Chrome’s built-in translator, about 10 minutes for 100,000 words; with the own translator, about 97 minutes. Longer on modest devices.
Can I close it and continue another day?
Yes. What has been translated is saved in your browser.
Why won’t my epub open?
If it has DRM, it cannot be opened. If it is damaged, the site tells you.
