Gibberish to Hangul Translator: Translate Korean usernames to Hangul
Extension stats
Other platforms
Extension summary
Gibberish to Hangul Translator is meant to translate the gibberish characters that appear when one types a Korean name/word on a standard QWERTY keyboard, often used as usernames in lieu of something actually readable in English, into the Hangul they represent. For example, K-Pop Star IU uses the name "dlwlrma" on Instagram, which, from QWERTY, directly transposes to 이지금 on a Korean layout.
One could very easily swap keyboard layouts and type the letters themselves to determine the word, but I'm lazy. But not too lazy to write the code to do it for me, I guess.
Usage
Highlight and right click the desired text and open the parent menu item labeled "Translate gibberish to Hangul". The translated text will appear as a sub-menu item.
