About this extension
Translate web pages, highlighted text, Netflix subtitles, private messages, speak text, and save important translations to your personal dictionary to learn words in 130 languages.

Encountering unfamiliar words while reading an online article? Just select text on the page and click the button to translate it. You can speak the translated and original text, and save the translation to your dictionary.

If you need to input text and translate it, you can just click the Linguist button to open the pop-up window.

Full-page translation
With Linguist, you can conveniently translate entire web pages with just one click. All you need to do is select "Translate page" from the context menu on any webpage, and it will be instantly translated into your preferred language.

Make your own personal knowledge base with Linguist!
Any translated text is saved in the history, and you can add your favorite translations to your dictionary. You can search for translations in both your dictionary and history, and even filter your translations by language. The dictionary feature is available even when you are offline, making it an ideal tool for language learners or travelers who require constant access to their word lists.

Offline translation and privacy
Linguist can translate texts even without the internet - a feature that no other extension has. The offline translator allows you to translate texts on your device without sending any private messages over the internet, ensuring your privacy. Simply enable the feature on the options page to maintain your privacy while translating work emails and personal messages.
