translate tool firefox
The translate tool I use in firefox is ‘gtranslate’. It uses google’s translate page to translate text. It works fine with an auto detect button for the language. However, I have always been luke warm about translate tools. The translations are always very funny and if you know even an intermediate level of a language the translate tool is not as good as simply scaning the text to understand it. Further you trying to read it yourself give you a boast of confidence when you can understand it and you are trying to learn the language.
However, translate tools do help you with words you do not know.

I prefer firefox add ons to the google tool bar as it is lighter. Firefox is a very light weight browser and I prefer to keep it that way. Here is the one I use firefox translate its an add on. Few firefox add ons stay active on my browers.
The way most of the translate tools on firefox work is you highlight and press the right mouse button to translate the text. It is pretty simple and saves you the time of going to google translate. I was playing around with the gtranslate tool when I was on vkontakte , however, most people write in such a slangy way on social networking sites that my firefox translate tool did not even help.
