There's two problems in your code.
Firstly you're trying to access the myanmar property of the data object when it doesn't exist. The only properties, in the example code at least, as english and japanese.
Secondly, the input elements do not have a textContent property. From the context it looks like you're trying to set the placeholder property instead.
document.querySelector('#togBtn').addEventListener('input', (event) => {
document.querySelector('.usrplaceholder').placeholder = data[event.currentTarget.checked ? 'japanese' : 'english'].usrplaceholder;
document.querySelector('.pwplaceholder').placeholder = data[event.currentTarget.checked ? 'japanese' : 'english'].pwplaceholder;
});
var data = {
"english": {
"usrplaceholder": "Username",
"pwplaceholder": "Password"
},
"japanese": {
"usrplaceholder": "အသုံးပြုသူအမည်",
"pwplaceholder": "စကားဝှက်",
}
