Word Reference Translator is a convenient Chrome extension designed to provide instant access to www.wordreference.com for word translations. Easily translate words by double-clicking and clicking the floating link, using the context menu on selected text, or pressing the configurable "T" key after selecting text. The extension supports translations among six major languages: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, and German.

Users can customize settings via an accessible page from the context menu or the add-ons list.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Word Reference Translator requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
