Are you part of the Chinese diaspora that grew up speaking Mandarin with your family but can now barely read any Chinese characters? Don't worry, you can now still shop on Taobao or read articles sent to you from WeChat relatives!

Wen Mang is a Chrome extension developed by jillianzhong that allows you to easily have Chinese characters read out loud to you in Mandarin. This extension will only read what characters you have highlighted in the browser. After highlighting text, simply right-click and select the extension icon from the drop-down menu. Alternatively, you can click the extension icon at the top right of your browser.

With Wen Mang, you can now confidently navigate Chinese websites and understand the content of articles or messages sent to you in Chinese. So, whether you're shopping online or staying connected with your Chinese-speaking relatives, Wen Mang is here to help you bridge the language gap.
