Translate from the
macOS menu bar.

Linguo is a translator in the macOS menu bar. There is no Dock icon and no account. Left-click the translate icon, type or paste a word or sentence, and Apple Translation fills the other language on your Mac.

The card always shows exactly two languages: the source on top, the translation below. Type or paste in the other field and that language jumps to the top. Selecting or copying the translation does not switch the pair. You choose every language — the list starts empty, and you need two before the card can translate.

Linguo uses Apple Translation on your Mac. There is no cloud translator inside the app, no sign-in, and no developer analytics. The interface follows your Mac’s language. Requires macOS 15 or later.
