I've been looking for a translator that doesn't spy on my webpage contents! This looks great

Note that Firefox has this translator built in if all you need is whole-page translation.

... If all you need is western European languages translation. If you need to translate any African or Asian language, you are SOL.

If you need languages other than "western European languages", you're SOL with this offline translator; whether you use it within Firefox or the extension.
