Is there a tool where i could bulk add a list of idn names and it would tell me the languages?

I have about 4500 that I need to run

Let me know if you find such a thing.

You must be looking at the coding and trying to tell what language it is in.

I am not aware of such a tool but it may be out there.

Often times I just look at the characters and can tell.

One suggestion is if you have the actual URL like:

xn--7iqu4fyzad35cy91byqj

you can load up to 500 at a time into Monikers bulk search tool. This will convert it into native script. As for language, you need to be able to recognize the characters. This particular one is in Chinese.

If you do find a tool, please pass it on. For now that is the only solution I can think of. Typically this involves quite a bit of work not only finding the language but interpretation. Not difficult, just time consuming.

Maybe not a big help, but when I want to sort IDNs by language I put them in Excel and just sort the list.
It will break them apart by language and does a pretty good job. (Korean and Chinese often get mixed up however). From there it is pretty easy to take the ones you don't recognize and put into google and look at the various country code extensions that come up for many page 1 and page 2 websites to identify the language or country of use.

For translating, I bulk translate as best as possible with
google.com/translate
systranet.com

Then run google trends, ovt, etc. where possible and run final lists by native speakers.

I'd suggest you to contact with the owner of this site: IDN Tools
drops lists are sorted/categorized by language in his site, see for example: http://idntools.net/idndrops/idndrops.php
you will find each domain + domain language, it's somehow can be done, he knows ask him and he can help I think.

Adam, just curious...are you adding more IDNs to your portfolio?
Lots of good activity and traffic especially to Russian IDNs since IE7 is finally getting browser support out there. And a tip of the hat to ICANN for all the good press in regards to the upcoming rollout of idn.idn.
