Word Aligner
Free visual word-by-word alignment for any language pair
Word Aligner helps language learners, teachers, and linguists see exactly why a translation says what it does. Stack a sentence over its translation, link matching words by clicking, and the connectors make reordering, dropped words, and splits obvious at a glance. Add a gloss tier for morpheme-by-morpheme notation, an IPA tier for pronunciation, and set fonts and text direction for each line. When the diagram is ready, export a clean PNG or SVG for slides and handouts, or share as a URL.

Hi everyone, I'm Dani. I spend a lot of time around conlangs (invented languages). One thing people in the community love doing is showing how a sentence in their language maps onto English, word by word, so others can follow how the grammar works. The trouble was there was no good way to draw it. People were lining up words and arrows by hand in Paint or PowerPoint, in whatever they had open. It looked rough and took forever. So I built Word Aligner to make that one thing easy. You type the two lines, click a word and then its match, and a connector draws itself. You can add a row for a gloss or for IPA, use a custom font for your script, and export a clean image or just share the link. There is no account and no machine translation, so you draw every link yourself. It caught on in the conlang subreddit, and I think language teachers and linguists may use it for the same reason: seeing which word corresponds to which is useful well beyond conlanging. I would really value your honest feedback, especially on whether the linking feels obvious the first time you try it.
