Instant Translation Extension#
This Chrome extension shared by Teacher Ni Shuang @nishuang, anyLanguage.ai, is quite useful. Its function is to type /en + content in any web page window, press the shortcut Shift+Enter, and instantly translate and replace the original text.
After using it, I found a few issues:
- There is a wait time of about 3 seconds during the conversion process.
- Sometimes it fails to trigger, so you may wait for more than ten seconds, but it doesn't return the translation.
- It is not applicable to all windows, for example, using / in Notion will conflict with the built-in command.
- Shift+Enter is a line break command in many windows.
So, how can we achieve instant translation in any dialog box without delay, use it globally, and customize the translation command? There is a way.
Using the instant translation feature of Quicker greatly facilitates our work. Especially after Google opened Bard Ai, which currently does not support Chinese, this action in Quicker can be used to write in Chinese and translate to English with one click, and the translation will be displayed for questioning.
Better Instant Translation#
You only need to copy and install the action Translate and Replace [Youdao Version] Quicker.
At the same time, I bind the "Translate and Replace" action to a text command. When I type "en" to trigger the action, it will translate and replace the text, and it can be used globally.
It supports translation between Chinese and English and can be used in any text box. The speed is very fast, with almost no lag, smooth and seamless.
With this translation action, Bard can be used very well. Currently, I think Bard is not better than Claude. It does not support Chinese and the answers are also unsatisfactory. But Bard is the fastest free AI answer I have ever used.
