What is Translate Selected Text?
"Translate Selected Text" is an Edge add-on that allows users to easily translate any selected text from a webpage. Leveraging the power of Google Translate, the add-on lets you choose your translation language right from the context menu. Unlike many others, it does not require additional permissions, assuring users of their privacy. Configurable language options, open-source code, active bug reporting, and constant updates contribute to functionality and versatility of this add-on.

Translate selected text with Google Translate This extension allows you to translate the text selection using Google Translate whenever you want.

When the extension is installed select some text from a website, right click and select to which language you want to translate the selected text.

** FAQ: ** Q: Why choose this extension and not another one? A: I designed this extension so that it didn't prompt the user for permissions. This way the final user knows that the extension doesn't have the permission to access the content of web pages and monitor the user activity on the Internet (other extensions of this type prompt for this permission). This extension has access only to the content of the selected text when the user clicks the extension context menu and it is used to create a Google Translate app with the text autocompleted.

You can configure from the options page which languages you want to show in the context menu.

** Open Source ** This extension is now open sourced! You can check out the source code, contribute, and fill in bugs in the GitHub repository: https://github.com/avm99963/translateselectedtext
