A Google Chrome extension to help you learn a language as you browse the web. Uses Google Translate to translate the selected text. Unlike other similar extensions, it doesn't slow down your browser or compromise your security by injecting itself into EVERY PAGE YOU visit, instead allowing you to activate it on a page-by-page basis.
To activate BabelFrog, simply open the page you'd like translated, then click on the BabelFrog icon, or press Ctrl+E (Command+E on Mac) on your keyboard. Doing this action a second time will bring up the BabelFrog settings panel, where you can set the languages you'd like to work in.
After activating BabelFrog on a given page, any selected text will be instantly translated into the language you chose. Because links can be awkward to select without accidentally clicking them, BabelFrog will translate any link you click on while holding down the Alt key.
Navigating away from the page, or even refreshing it, will reset BabelFrog, freeing up system resources.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
