Works on Google Books. Unlike other free addons, this one doesn&#8217;t make you jump through hoops or go to Google Translate.  It also has a feature that ensures it doesn&#8217;t work in places such as search-engine input boxes. Made in Japan, and a mature and maintained bit of software development.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How it works:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Select your target text, a small button shows up.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/button.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/button.jpg?w=509\" alt=\"\" width=\"509\" height=\"180\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-48118\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Click the button to instantly show the translation.  Language is auto-detected.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/show.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/show.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"513\" height=\"247\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-48117\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>While the translation box is displayed, you can also select and <em>Ctrl + C<\/em> to copy text from it if you wish.<\/p>\n<p>Clicking away from the translation removes the translation box and also deselects the page text. <\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>To run on Google Books<\/strong>, as seen above, after install in Opera:<\/p>\n<p>1. Access Options. Run on all sites. (This appears to be the default, but make sure it is).<\/p>\n<p>2. Applications. Manage Extension. Turn on &#8220;Allow Access to Search Results&#8221;, to have it work on Google and Google Books and other search results.  Opera requires this, and I assume others Web browsers do also.<\/p>\n<p>3. In its own Settings page there are also switches to ensure it does not display its button in unwanted places such as search-engine input boxes, password input forms etc. This vital feature is missing in a couple of other similar addons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simple Translate for Chrome, Opera, and other Web browsers which support Chrome addons.
