Summary
Do you want to have a nifty way to have multiple languages in a fic:
- Without making your readers scroll to the AN for a translation?
- Without the text and translation sitting side by side?
- And still make it look pretty when people download it into an EPUB or PDF format?
Here is a solution for you. Come on babygirls, let's roll.
(This is a HTML tutorial but I'm lowkey flirting with you by calling you babygirl occasionally because I got bored while writing this.)
NEW UPDATE [20/3/2026]:
- Chapter 1: Sample Usage (Excerpt from a WIP in my drafts)
- A short character study about Griffin Harley from Babel (by R.F. Kuang). Utilizies 3 languages in multiple formats. You don't need to have read Babel to pick apart the code used.
- Chapter 2: Basic Tutorial (same as before)
- Chapter 3: FAQ (regarding customization and usage)
Series
- Part 3 of .shapes_and_colours
