There was another Chrome extension that did what you&#x27;re describing: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chrome.google.com&#x2F;webstore&#x2F;detail&#x2F;language-immersion-for-ch&#x2F;bedbecnakfcpmkpddjfnfihogkaggkhl&#x2F;reviews" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chrome.google.com&#x2F;webstore&#x2F;detail&#x2F;language-immersion...</a><p>Was covered in Lifehacker here: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;lifehacker.com&#x2F;5907432&#x2F;language-immersion-for-chrome-teaches-you-a-new-language-while-you-browse-the-web" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;lifehacker.com&#x2F;5907432&#x2F;language-immersion-for-chrome-...</a><p>Seems like it&#x27;s broken now though. I have a hunch he was trying to use Google Translate without paying for their API. Either that, or he really was paying for the API which is unsustainable for a free extension.<p>I don&#x27;t think it&#x27;s a great idea anyway. If you want to learn French, you should read French written by a native speaker, not a machine translation of English into French. Readlang uses machine translation as an aid to understanding native texts, which is far more acceptable IMO.
