The
translate()
CSS function repositions an element in the horizontal and/or vertical directions. Its result is a <transform-function>
data type.This transformation is characterized by a two-dimensional vector. Its coordinates define how much the element moves in each direction. Crossover 19 0 1.
Syntax
A great extension but would be VERY nice if the translation could happen 'immediately'. What I mean by this? Either a popup/tooltip to show the translation inside of it (I prefer the tab though) or just using a keyboard shortcut for the purpose, to activate the 'translate now' feature. Binary to Text Translator. Enter binary numbers with any prefix / postfix / delimiter and press the Convert button (E.g: 010101 011000 01100101). Google Translate supports dozens of foreign languages. The most popular way to translate text free. The Bing translator is a Microsoft product embedded into windows and windows phone. The translator has a distinction because it is the last major translation engine with free API.

property. - Double
<length-percentage>
values - This value describes two
<length>
or<percentage>
values representing both the abscissa (x-coordinate) and the ordinate (y-coordinate) of the translating vector. A percentage as first value refers to the width, as second part to the height of the reference box defined by thetransform-box
property.

You wish to translate a part of text of an article but you do not want Chrome to translate the whole web page? Today we will show you a very quick way to translate the selected text in browser (a single word or a phrase).
By the way, how many taps do you perform on your Android device to see the translation of an unknown word on a website?
How to Translate a Word or Phrase on Android
First, install the Google Translate app from the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.translate Matchbook 1 1 1.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.translate Matchbook 1 1 1.
Then, follow the steps:
- Long press on the word (not the link). The word will be selected.
- Now you can either edit the selection or leave it as is (in case if you would like to translate the single word).
- In the pop-up menu, tap “Translate”.
If you can’t see such an item, you should first tap the three dots icon to show it.
Now you should be able to see the translation results floating over the app:
Steps for Very Old Devices, Retro Android & App Versions
If you have a very old phone or tablet where you can’t update apps, here are the steps to translate text.
- Select the text in the browser.
- Tap the “Share” button:
- Select the Google Translate app.
- The text will be translated using current settings of the app. Change the language or direction if you need to translate to or from another language:
How to Make the “Translate” Item Fit in that Pop-Up?
On my Pixel phones everything is fine with the menu. But on other devices I often need to perform the extra tap every time I want to translate a text in a browser. I mean, I need to first tap on three dots and then select “Translate”.
I found a wonky workaround. I enable the Developer options on my Android device and try to gradually increase the “Smallest Width” value until that pop-up fits entirely.
Conclusion
I have this app on my every device because I read a lot of tech news in different languages every day. And I can say, it is awesome!
Each time you find an unknown word or can’t understand a phrase (or even paragraph) in your browser or Google app, just 1) select the text and 2) tap “Translate”. That’s all you need to know.
