Ambrose Bierce's book of satirical definitions The Devil's Dictionary has acquired an international reputation as an entertaining and important work of satire, and so has been translated from its original American English into other languages many times.

In addition, writers in several countries have made critical observations in non-English languages about The Devil's Dictionary in their introductions and afterwords to Bierce's book, and in scholarly essays.

Some translations, with the first year of publication and of reprints (as well as new printings by other publishers of existing editions), include:
