TWP - Translate Web Pages by Filipe Dev
Review by Firefox user 10206391
Rated 3 out of 5
by Firefox user 10206391, 4 years agoVery handy & translates not only whole web pages but also just the parts of the page that are in a foreign language (ex: a foreign language comment in a string of English comments).
Just two things I don't care for and, though seemingly small, are annoying enough for me to disable it for now.
1) It may seem obvious to others, but I find the toolbar button's 'options' when clicked to begin translating confusing. I just want to click the button, approve of what options it's showing me, and click 'Translate Now', or some such button.
Instead, I'm like: "....now what? No actual button to click".
2) When highlighting a word or sentence in any web page (to copy / cut, etcetera) the little blue "G" translate popup button hovers over the highlighted word. This is annoying for two reasons:
a) It gets in the way of reading what's directly behind it (I know---it's small, but this seems a constant irritant). I *already* have the button in the address / tool bar to click if I want to engage this extension.
b) That little blue "G" button DOESN'T GO AWAY after the highlighted word / sentence is long 'un-highlighted'. You have to click a couple of times elsewhere in the web page to make it finally disappear.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Four Legged LYS, a month agoUse this one instead of To Google Translate which provides highly outdated/clunky translations. Plus no opening some kind of separate window or page is required, just a pop-up, yay, and with the function of text-to-speech.
- Rated 5 out of 5by José Gustavo Santiago Wolff, a month agoExtensão muito boa, pois em alguns sites, o tradutor original dos navegadores dá um refresh para traduzir o site. A extensão permite você desativar e ativar o tradutor como bem entender, lembrando que ele tem opção de traduzir apenas uma frase do texto, caso desejar. Bom para ter o aprendizado de aprender outra lingua e a facilidade de tirar dúvidas na tradução de palavras desconhecidas.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Shogun, 2 months agoGoogle translate works well here but there are simpler extensions for that. Google's translations are average. I couldn't get Bing to work here. Yandex works but is worse than other options. Using DeepL just opens a new tab and pushes your text over to the new tab which I can do myself with copy paste. DeepL won't let you translate a whole webpage for free, only text snippets. DeepL is poor at names, idioms, titles, and short bits of text but really good at longer form texts.
This is a nice extension with good customization hindered by poor translation tools. For my purposes its better just to use something simpler.
