Extension summary

STILL IN DEVELOPMENT Ever had the desire to learn Spanish but just haven't been able to find the time to do so? Is the thought of having to take time out of your normal browsing habits to learn a new language sickening? Then the Sneaky Spanish extension is for you!

Sneaky Spanish allows you to learn Spanish in the context of web pages you are already reading on the web by selectively translating words and passages on the pages you view.

Features:

  • Seamlessly translates words in a webpage to Spanish without interrupting your normal browsing habits.
  • Right click on a translated word to see its English translation, part of speech, the number of times you have clicked that word, and even hear how to pronounce it!
  • Ability to highlight all translated words if desired.
  • Get stats on how many words you have clicked, and how total times you have clicked on them.

User reviews

Worked great initially. Then stopped translating words completely even on highest setting. Also somehow managed to disable drop boxes on multiple sites for months. Finally found out THIS extension was the cause. Unsure why.

It doesn't come with any instructions whatsoever. You'd expect it to work by hovering over a word, or even CTRL+Click, but nothing seems to work.

It's an interesting concept but doesn't work well in execution. There is only a set number of specific words that are translated and context isn't taken into account, which leads to inaccurate translations.
