How to translate the selected text in Windows using Google translate?












1















When I select a text in the Android system, it shows an option to translate the selected text using Google translate (my translation pops up).



Now, how to use Google translate service in the same way (or using hotkeys) to translate the selected text in Windows without opening a browser or the main window of a dictionary?



P.S. Maybe some apps like GoldenDict is helpful, but when I add the following address:



https://translate.google.com/#en/ar/%GDWORD%


It shows nothing! see this result

  • I suggest you to try GoldenDict unstable version from here github.com/goldendict/goldendict/wiki/… If I remember correctly version from official site is very dated and has bugs which were fixed.

I strongly advise you QTranslate.



Its a free windows app, that translate selected text by pressing hotkey.
Program support many translate services like Google, Babylon and much more.
I think this is must have app for all, who need read text on not in native language.

    There is Google Translate for Chrome




    Google Translate for Chrome is a free online translation service that works as an extension for Google Chrome. Users simply select their target language and paste the text that they need to translate into the box on the left hand side. Choose the language that you want the text to appear in, press the blue Translate button and you will receive your translation almost instantly.




    There is also a free Microsoft Translator app from the Microsoft store.




    Microsoft Translator enables you to translate text and speech, have translated conversations, and even download AI-powered language packs to use offline.
