Firefox Translation

Firefox has added new translation features that allow you to seamlessly browse the web in your preferred language. As you navigate the site, Firefox continuously translates new content in real time. The translation feature was rolled out gradually and has been available for all users since Firefox version 118. A new Translate selection feature has been added starting in Firefox version 128, that enables you to highlight and translate selected text.

Note: Unlike other browsers that rely on cloud services, Firefox keeps your data safe on your device. There's no privacy risk of sending text to third parties for analysis because translation happens on your device, not externally.
