    I uninstalled my ‘translate’ extensions a while ago already. I heard that there may be something fishy about them. Now i am missing them dearly. Is there any trustworthy one left for Firefox?

      Firefox has translate function built in.

        Yes, that’s for whole web pages. But sometimes, just part of the page are in a different language, like, say, one of the comments in this thread would be in a language I don’t know. There it’d be great to just mark it and right-click it.

          It should be available. Right click / Translate selection.
