The latest news from the Google Chrome team
Translate web pages more easily with the new Google Translate Chrome Extension
Wednesday, October 15, 2014
[Cross-posted on the
Google Translate blog
]
When you're browsing the web, you might come across a page where some of the text is in a different language. With the new update to the Google Translate Chrome extension, you can translate just that piece of text, without worrying about the rest of the page.
Simply highlight the text that you want to translate, and then click the Translate icon that appears. You can also right click and choose "Google Translate". If you click the icon in the upper right of your browser window, with no text highlighted, you can translate the entire web page.
You can download and try the Translate extension from the
Chrome Web Store
; if you already have the extension installed, it will be updated automatically.
The Translate team is working hard to connect people by breaking language barriers across computers, mobile devices and Internet browsers. Our users make more than 1 billion translations a day, and we hope that our recent update will make their translation tasks a little easier!
