This free Infernal translator converts English to Infernal — and back — instantly. Infernal is the lawful, contractual language spoken by devils and tieflings throughout the Nine Hells. Every phrase is precise and deliberate, reflecting a culture built around binding pacts, infernal bargains, and legal loopholes.
Its cold, formal tone makes it a favorite for warlocks who draw power from fiendish patrons and for scholars translating cursed contracts — it also doubles as a fiend and devil-language translator, since every devil in the Nine Hells speaks it natively. Infernal script frequently appears on cursed items and pact-bound artifacts in D&D adventures, warning would-be readers of the price of power. As a tiefling translator, this covers the ancestral language most tieflings still speak alongside Common.
Infernal is an exotic language in D&D 5e, spoken by devils and tieflings. It is written in the Infernal script. It is precise, contractual, and coldly beautiful, and every word carries hidden weight.
