Good tool, but I also found a very good plugin in this week Linkedin Follower Grower - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/linkedin-follower-grower/lnnpmjffjejpmdjfeaheifpnnidnfkkd

Наконец-то нашел то что нужно. Встроенный переводчик не имеет своего сочетания клавиш, а сторонние приложения для настроики сочетании не могут их добавить для перевода. А постоянно тыкать через ПКМ меню перевода надоело. Это же приложение через шифт показывает перевод всплывающим окном выделенный текст, есть возможность озвучить выделенный текст.
