TWiC - Translation of words in context Extension

TWiC stands for 'Translation of Words in Context'. TWiC is a web browser extension that provides terminological assistance for readers of foreign language documents. It interacts with the LATL server to analyze the source text and display context-dependent translations.

Highlight a word on a web page and click on the TWiC icon in the browser toolbar. A popup window opens and displays the possible translations of the selected word. You can change the source language (if automatic detection was wrong) and the target language (to translate into another language). For some language pairs, you can also request the automatic translation of the entire paragraph.
