Shadow Translator - Bilingual view for Chrome
5 ratings
)Overview
Shows the original text as a gray line under each paragraph Chrome translates.
Chrome's page translation replaces the original text. Shadow Translator shows the original in gray under each paragraph Chrome translates. Chrome does the translating; this extension only adds the original underneath. Key features - How to use: Install it, then translate a page with Chrome. The original appears right away (reload tabs that were open before installing) - Original alongside: The original under every translated paragraph (removed when you turn translation off) - Same translation flow: Use the translate icon in the address bar or the right-click menu, as usual - All languages: Works with every language Chrome translation supports - No strings attached: No sign-up, no payment, no usage limits - Simple and safe: No server communication, about 23 KB - Customizable: Color, font size, line height and opacity of the original Notes - Google Chrome only. Chromium-based browsers such as Edge, Whale and Brave use different built-in translators, so it won't work properly there. - Why access to all sites: There's no way to know in advance which page you'll translate, so the original has to be captured before translation starts. No data is sent anywhere. (When you translate, Chrome sends the page content to Google. That is how Chrome translation itself works.)
