TransOver Extension

Translate word (or text selection) from any language to the language of your choice by single click or hover over.

Also available:
- text-to-speech
- reverse translate: from your own language to the language of your choice
- type and translate in a popup
- copy translation to clipboard

SECURITY EXPLAINED

\"Your data on all websites\":
TransOver should be able to read any word on a page - \"Your data ...\" - in order to translate it. On any website you want it working - \"... on all websites\".

100% CLEAN Softpedia award - https://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Internet-Applications-Addons/Chrome-Extensions/TransOver.shtml#status

There is also a Firefox version: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/transover-ff/

Channel (ID: 000000c88f038ee0) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/03/2024 🟠3.10.24: Doesn't work on YouTube anymore? Hovering mouse over any word, but it doesn't shows the translation. Thanks. UPDATE, In Opera, in search page (google), doesn't translate, not even show the frame when i click on icon up right the browser. You know why? Ξαφνικά δεν κάνει καμία μετάφραση. Γιατί;

(ID: ) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 08/27/2024 It was the best translator for youtube subtitles. It is not working anymore! Please fix and give it back to us!

icon

(ID: ) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/02/2023 It is very handy extension, but sometimes it doesn't work for some reason. So it is a bit unreliable, otherwise it works as intended.

icon

John Renfro (ID: 0000003515e06176) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/19/2023 This is the best translator on the web because you can just highlight a word or a phrase or the entire paragraph and it translates correctly. Press CTRL and in Chrome browser, it speaks the pronunciation. It does need a written pronunciation guide. For this reason 10Ten reader is better for Asian languages.
