[Suggestion] Please add Google translate to context menu (only thing missing since switching from Chrome)

I visit a lot of foreign sites and find the "translate" option from Chrome really useful. Maybe a plugin could do this in the future?

@LudenUK There is a Google Translate extension.

Don't know if it adds something to context menu.

Personally I use the extension below. You can translate entire pages.

Thanks AndyGrv... I did manage to find a good one. Here's what I discovered in case anybody else is wondering;

Failed to translate web pages until all text was selected and icon was clicked. Translated text in a tiny window and wouldn't redisplay the web page with translated text - uninstalled.

**NOTE: The above extensions are actually really handy if you have foreign text in your clipboard and you just wanna quickly translate it and is actually quicker and easier than manually visiting Google translate's web page to do it so I decided to keep one of them for this purpose.

RECOMMENDED (same one AndyGrv suggests)

No context menu but you click its icon next the the address bar to begin translating. It's a little slow and it needs to open a new tab to redisplay the translated page but it's automatic and in-line and allows you to view the page translated retaining its original format.
