ImTranslator for Opera

If you are looking for a handy translation extension for your computer's web browser, then look no further than ImTranslator.

This cross-browser extension for Opera, Google Chrome, and Firefox aims to be a reliable companion during your browsing sessions by making use of some of the most popular translation providers out there, Google Translate, Microsoft Translator, and Bing Translator.

It currently comes with support for 91 languages, and it can translate anything from words, phrases, texts, or entire webpages, if need be. It also comes equipped with other, super-useful features like text-to-speech, translation history, and automatic language detection.

If all this sounds good, it's because it is. ImTranslator is one of those extensions that perfectly integrate with the browser's interface, being both efficient and unobtrusive at the same time.

That said, there are multiple ways in which you can take advantage of this handy tool. For starters, try and highlight a piece of text from any webpage. You will notice a small ImTranslator icon will appear above the highlighted area.

Click it, and you are provided with an instant translation via a compact UI. Want more features? Click the extension's icon from Opera's toolbar. You can translate texts, take advantage of a useful Dictionary section, compare translations, copy them to your computer's clipboard and other such options.

Speaking of options, ImTranslator has all bases covered. From the Options section, you can customize multiple behavioral aspects of all important tools. One example is that you can change the shortcuts for the Inline Translator and the Pop-up Bubble.

Sure, we will admit, it's not exactly a modern-looking extension, but that's borderline nitpicking, really. To end with, ImTranslator has a lot of things going for it, starting with its access to the most competent translation databases and ending with its surprising but welcome amount of customization features.

Having said that, it should come as no surprise that this is one of the most appreciated and useful extensions to date, as the hundreds of thousands who users who are currently using stand proof of that fact.
