One shortcut
Select text and press Command/Ctrl + Shift + Y.
Select a word, sentence, or paragraph. Franker translates it with Chrome's built-in on-device API and places the result beside the original text.

Read in context

Select text and press Command/Ctrl + Shift + Y.
Short selections stay together; longer passages are translated sentence by sentence.
Keep reading, comparing, and learning without opening another service.
