Unread post by kalekale » 2021-06-22, 08:21

does not have to be google translate, is there a add-on/tool that can translate the whole page?

Currently there is no add-on for Google Translate -- see also other threads about it.
You can just enter the URL in Google's translator website and it will switch to page translation mode.

GeoFlag (my port of FlagFox) has a Google Translate action in the default list, if that helps.

This is inconvenient as sometime we only need to translate a specific word, a paragraph, a sentence or a phrase. Translate the whole page only cause more distraction. I think the Chrome extension Google Translate of Google themselves is the best. On FF, I use the Simple Translate extension which is almost a clone of the Google version. If you could sorted out a similar extension for PM, please do it.

Currently I select a word then search it on DuckDuckGo. Most of the time DDG will provide the meaning and spelling of it. It's about word translation (indeed a dictionary look up, isn't it?). There is no way to workaround paragraphs, sentences or phrases translation without copying them and paste to Google Translate website.

Why don't YOU do it? We're busy facilitating continued existence of classical applications and technologies as well as infrastructure all while trying to keep up in a race with mega-corperations or cartels there of bent on destroying the web as you have known it.. YOUR job is to make effective use of all we provide. It is the LEAST you can do.

Then we can't help you. We are all the agents of our own salvation. If you can't be bothered then it is already too late.

I guess the bottom line is: if you're stupid you'll have to accept that some things will simply be inconvenient.
