Imagine you stumble upon an incredibly interesting website (shoutout to Tim Urban’s Wait But Why), but unfortunately, your language skills are lacking.

Or perhaps you’re an avid surfer of foreign websites, hoping to use native language resources to improve your language skills.

Unfortunately, standard web translation tools provide a one-click translation that is simple but ineffective; regular word translation plugins often forget what you marked after the first use.

At this point, you need to combine Immersive Translate and NeonLingo for outstanding results.

NeonLingo: The Smart Navigator for Web Translation

With its unique automatic vocabulary highlighting feature, there's no need for repeated marking. Powered by AI language models, it translates everything from web page titles and main text to hidden comments and small text on buttons—anything you can "highlight" will be translated into your desired language, with contextually accurate translations.

Immersive Translate: The Low-Key Text Translation Assistant
