Darug Translator Online – English to Dharug Word Substitution

Swap English words for Dharug equivalents from a fixed vocabulary list, with unmatched words preserved exactly as you wrote them. You also get a clear report of which terms were replaced and which were left alone, so the result is never a silent guess. Try it online.

What is Darug Translator Online – English to Dharug Word Substitution?

Darug Translator Online is a text tool that replaces a fixed set of English words and short phrases with Dharug equivalents. You paste or type English text, and the agent returns the same text with any recognised vocabulary swapped in. Everything it does not recognise stays exactly where you put it, including punctuation, capitalisation patterns and line breaks.

This is a glossary-based substitution tool, not a full translation engine. It works from a small, explicit word list covering everyday terms such as hello, goodbye, friend, mother, water, fire and yes. That honesty is the point: you can see precisely what changed and what did not.

Key Features

Exact word-list substitution. Only the configured English-to-Dharug pairs are applied. Unlisted words pass through untouched.
Longest-entry-first matching. Multi-word entries such as "thank you" and "black cockatoo" are matched before their component words, so they are not broken apart.
Whole-word, case-insensitive matching. "Water" and "water" both convert; "waterhole" is treated as its own listed entry rather than as "water" plus a suffix.
Replacement report. After the converted text you get a short list of which terms were swapped and which English words were left unchanged, so nothing is hidden.
Reverse lookup. You can ask for the Dharug-to-English direction, which checks the same list backwards and is clearly labelled as list-based rather than grammatical.
Random sentence option. Ask for a sample sentence assembled only from the configured vocabulary if you want a quick demonstration.

How to Use

Type or paste your English text into the chat. A sentence or a short paragraph both work.
The agent applies the vocabulary list and returns the converted text in a copyable block, followed by a brief report of replacements and untouched words.
If you want the other direction, say so explicitly, for example "now convert this Dharug text back to English using the same list".

You can also ask follow-up questions such as "which words in my sentence were not in the list?" or "show me the full vocabulary you are using".

Example Use Cases

Checking everyday vocabulary. You are curious how a simple greeting reads with Dharug words: "Hello friend, thank you for the water" becomes a mixed sentence where the listed terms are swapped and the rest stays English.
Classroom vocabulary practice. A teacher wants students to see which English words in a short passage have a listed Dharug equivalent and which do not, using the replacement report as a discussion prompt.
Testing a word list before reuse. A language enthusiast wants to confirm how multi-word entries like "black cockatoo" behave when embedded in a longer sentence, and whether capitalisation is preserved.

Tips for Best Results

Keep expectations calibrated: this tool substitutes words from a fixed list. It does not build Dharug sentences, apply grammar, or translate words outside the list.
Ask for the replacement report if you need to know exactly which terms were recognised; it is the fastest way to see the boundary of the vocabulary.
If a word you expected was not converted, ask the agent to show the full list so you can confirm whether that term is included.

FAQ

What input format does it accept?
Plain text typed or pasted into the chat. Sentences, short paragraphs and lists all work. Very long passages are handled in order, but the vocabulary is small, so most words will remain English.

How accurate is the result?
It is exact with respect to the configured list: a listed word is replaced, an unlisted word is preserved. It is not accurate as full Dharug translation, because no grammar, syntax or wider vocabulary is applied. Treat the output as a word-level glossary swap.

How is this different from some free text tools?
Some free text tools present a two-box page where text is swapped automatically with no explanation of what changed. This agent returns the converted text plus a transparent report of replacements and untouched words, and it states its matching rules up front. It does not claim broader language coverage than its list supports.

Does it produce audio or images?
No. The output is text only.
