Firefox Language Support Addons or Extensions

Summary

The Firefox web browser from Mozilla is not only a great open source web browser. It's also a fabulous tool for language learners! It would take a long time to list and go through all of the cool things you can do with the addons (extensions of Firefox's core functionality) in the language section of Firefox Addons. Several articles have already been published a few of articles on the topic (see related articles below), one of which contains a link to Firefox addons for translation.

However, another, cooler, resource has just popped up on the radar and anyone dealing with learning languages online, translation, researching and/or reading content in foreign languages on the Web is encouraged to check out this amazing repository for Firefox addons for Language support. The link has been pre-defined for showing the addons that have been updated most recently, both experimental and stable. Here are a few more pre-defined links that will sort the addons by number of downloads, rating and name.

There is a lot of them, but it's definitely worth the time to sift through and find the ones that work for you.

Cheers to CodePublic.org for the link! Below is an example of an addon listing for a Chinese pop-up translator.

Quick Translation Tool for Firefox

Summary

This is a sweet Firefox extension for quick translation of the terms that you highlight on a web page. When you highlight any term on the page, by default it gives you information from Babylon and sometimes Wikipedia (depending on the term) in a pop-up box. The links to Babylon contain the affliate ID of the developer of this Firefox extension. It's actually a clever way to do something cool and perhaps make some dough if it's used a lot. The extension developer was smart, and if you prefer, you can choose to have just the translations appear automatically in the navigation bar, free of ads, fast and non-obtrusive.

All in all, if you are working with one of the 17 current (and possibly growing) languages the tool works with, it is a light and quick method of getting quick and dirty translations.

From Website

Simply select with your mouse any word and the translation will appear in the address bar or in a pop-up window.
