How to Translate Reddit From Chinese to Thai (Step-by-Step)
Chinese-language content on Reddit is rich and worth reading. If Thai is your stronger reading language, the usual friction applies: copy the text into a translator and lose the layout, or read slower than you would like.
This guide shows a third option — translate the Chinese post in place, directly into Thai, with bilingual translation. The Chinese stays visible and the Thai meaning appears right beside it, so you can read the meaning quickly and still check the original for any word, name, or phrase.
Demo note: the screenshots below are built in a real Reddit layout to show exactly how BothLang displays a bilingual page — the Chinese paragraph on top and the translated Thai directly beneath, with a hand-drawn arrow pointing at the translation.The workflow is identical on any post because BothLang works on whatever page you are viewing.
What you need
- BothLang installed in Chrome, Edge, or Firefox — see the download page.
- The extension pinned to your toolbar.
- A Chinese-language post open in a tab.
Step 1 — Open the Chinese post
Open the Chinese piece you want to read.
Step 2 — Set Thai as your target
Click the BothLang icon. Set Translate into to Thai and Page display to Bilingual.
Step 3 — Translate the page
Click Translate Now. BothLang places a Thai translation directly beneath each Chinese paragraph, leaving the Chinese intact. A hand-drawn arrow marks the first translated paragraph.
Step 4 — Switch reading modes
- Bilingual — source and translation together.
- Translation only — fastest.
- Original only — back to clean Chinese.
The short version
