Foreword:
In today's era of globalization, language is no longer a barrier that separates people from communicating. However, when browsing foreign language web pages, we often encounter a problem: we cannot accurately understand the content.
Google Translate is a powerful translation tool, but due to various reasons, we may not be able to directly access the Google Translate website. To solve this problem, I recommend using an immersive bilingual web translation extension called "Immersive Translate".
This article uses Google Chrome as an example to give a simple demonstration. (For other browsers, please refer to the official guidance article at the end of the chapter to install and use it yourself).
Main features
- Immersive reading of foreign language websites intelligently identifies the main content area of the webpage and performs bilingual translation. Immersive translation provides a new foreign language reading experience, hence the name "immersive translation".
- Powerful input box translation turns the input box on any web page into a multi-language translator, instantly unlocking the bilingual real-time conversation experience of Google search, ChatGPT and other tools.
- Efficient file translation. Export bilingual e-books with one click. It also supports real-time bilingual translation of PDF, subtitles, TXT and other files.
- The innovative mouse-over translation simply requires you to hover your mouse over any paragraph on any web page, and the corresponding translation will immediately appear below the paragraph. Paragraphs are treated as the smallest unit in the design philosophy of immersive translation, retaining their context so that we can truly understand and learn foreign languages.
- In-depth customization and optimization of mainstream websites are optimized for mainstream websites such as Google, Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, Bloomberg, and the Wall Street Journal. Whether searching, socializing, or obtaining information, it is smoother and more efficient.
- Full platform support In addition to major desktop browsers, mobile devices can also enjoy the same immersive translation experience. Easily browse Twitter, Reddit and other social media bilingually on mobile browsers such as iOS Safari and Android Kiwi browser.
- Supports 10+ translation services In immersive translation, you can choose more than 10 translation services, such as Deepl, OpenAI, Microsoft Translate, Google Translate, Tencent Translate, etc., and the list is still growing.
