Linguist is a powerful browser extension built to replace commercial translation services — private, fast, and under your control.

Translate web pages, highlighted text, subtitles (including Netflix), and private messages; hear translations via TTS; and save entries to a personal dictionary. Supports 130 languages.

# Why Linguist?

Linguist is a standalone translation system — not a thin wrapper around a commercial widget. Translate privately and offline on your device, or plug in any backend you choose (including your own; see [Custom translators](https://linguister.io/docs/CustomTranslator)). See a [custom translators list](https://github.com/translate-tools/linguist-translators) for popular bindings.

Linguist is free, open-source, and collects no personal data.

This addon can be used on mobile browsers with [Firefox Nightly](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.fenix) (Recommended), or with any chromium browser that supports extensions.

To try it on Firefox, you have to add the [Linguist add-on](https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/linguist-translator/) to a [custom add-on collection](https://www.ghacks.net/2020/10/01/you-can-now-install-any-add-on-in-firefox-nightly-for-android-but-it-is-complicated/) and use this collection to install the extension.

To try it on a chromium browser, download the normal extension for Chrome.
