(former Google Dictionary and Google Translate)
In-line dictionary for any word you point to or double-click; whole page translation of any web page in another language.The extension brings two functionalities to your Firefox browser:
* in-line translation of words;
* translation of the whole page.
In-line Translation
Move your mouse over the word that you want to translate then press down the Ctrl+Shift keys (or Ctrl, or Ctrl-Alt -- configurable with the options dialog) to show the meanings of the word.
Alternatively, with a little change on the option, you can double-click a word or a phrase to show the definition of it in your language.
At the bottom of the little pop-up, there is a "more" link which will lead you to the full definition at Wiktionary web site.
To close the little pop-up, just click on any blank place on the browser (or move the mouse away -- set with the options dialog). The little pop-up must be closed before you can activate another in-line translation.
Page Translation
Click on the Tools menu from the menu bar, and select Translate Page.
Style
You can supply your own style to make the inline pop-up a different look. There are some examples here, including the fancy Aero Glass style.
