      It will be amazing, to be able to select part of page and translate it like in google chrome with google translator or maybe with build it opera translator.

      Context Menu:
      image_2026-01-31_230029789.png

      And it shows popup/alert:
      b67da29f-fe71-4f83-8a64-8bdc6f62dd86-image.png

      I miss it so much, from the time i was using chrome, i've migrated to Opera GX, because it works better, but this functionallity is very important to me.

      If it already exists, let's tell me, how to enable it, otherwise let's consider to implement it 🙂

            @Destroxxx Do you have AI disabled? Or you don't have AI available?

              @leocg I have this windows on context menu with "Translate" option, but it did nothing.

              I remember, i had option to translate with aria, but when i was selecting this one, aria was opened but sending my question "To which language are you want to translate" and i need to provide this info, which isn't good UX.

              I've decided to download google translator plugin to opera, so far so good, but if it could be native, it will be better 🙂

                  @Destroxxx When you highlight a text on a page, do you see the bar with Copy, Search, etc?

                      @leocg Wait
                      After reinstall it works.

                      But still

                      Even if i'm able to change language for translation somewhere, it's too much effort for that small task, i think google translate is better solution for this.

                      I need to provide more information for LLM(specified my language)

                      I'm technical guy, but non-technical people need more simple solution IMHO

                        @Destroxxx It should translate to your main language.

                          @leocg Okkkkk.

                          That make sense, i have English as default, now i've changed to my language and it works fine.

                          Thanks a loot for your answers.

                          So helpful 🙂
