Free Aurebesh Translator — Site Description & Introduction
Description
Free Aurebesh Translator is a free, fan-made web toolkit for converting English into the writing systems of the Star Wars galaxy. It supports five languages: Aurebesh, Sith Alphabet (Ur-Kittât), Huttese, Droidspeak Binary, and the Death Trooper Cipher. The Aurebesh engine correctly handles all 12 canonical dipthongs — CH, EE, EO, KH, NG, OO, SH, TH, YA, BL, KR, ZH — matching two-letter combos before single letters, which most other translators get wrong. Output can be exported as transparent PNG or SVG, shared via link, or played back as audio. Built with Next.js 15, fully free, no account required.
Introduction
The Most Accurate Star Wars Language Translator Online
Free Aurebesh Translator (freeaurebesh.com) is a free web app for translating English into the writing and language systems of the Star Wars galaxy. It covers five Star Wars languages, each with its own translator, reference materials, and export tools — all accessible from a browser with no login required.
The project was built with one goal: accuracy. Most Aurebesh translators online produce incorrect output because they ignore dipthongs. This translator handles all 12 canonical dipthongs correctly, making it the go-to tool for tattoos, cosplay props, and screen-accurate projects.
Supported Languages
Aurebesh — The standard writing system of the Galactic Republic and Empire. Appears on ship displays, helmets, and props throughout all Star Wars films. Supports all 26 letters and 12 dipthongs, with PNG/SVG export, reverse translation, and shareable links.
Sith Alphabet (Ur-Kittât) — The ancient script of the Sith Order. 26 angular glyphs rendered using cuneiform Unicode. Used in Sith holocrons and dark side lore materials.
Huttese — The language spoken by Jabba the Hutt. A vocabulary replacement engine with 200+ words and partial-match highlighting.
Droidspeak (Binary) — R2-D2's beep language, encoded as Morse-style sequences. Includes real-time audio playback via Web Audio API and 8-bit binary mode.
Death Trooper Cipher — The Imperial encryption system from Rogue One. Combines Atbash mirror with Caesar shift, rendered as Aurebesh glyphs. Adjustable shift value, encrypt and decrypt modes.
Why Dipthong Accuracy Matters
Dipthongs are two-letter combinations that map to a single Aurebesh glyph. There are 12 canonical dipthongs: CH, EE, EO, KH, NG, OO, SH, TH, YA, BL, KR, ZH.
When translating, dipthongs must be matched before single letters. If a translator processes letters one at a time.
This is the most common mistake in Aurebesh translators online. For tattoos and screen-accurate props, a wrong dipthong is immediately visible to anyone familiar with Star Wars. This translator scans for two-letter combos first, every time.
