RE: What workflow would allow me to quickly look up an ad hoc translation?posted in Feedback
Yes, was convoluted. Sorry for that.
The question boils down to:
Is there an option to translate anything that is not text on a website to a corresponding language?
Think of it like this: Dictionariez currently is to my understanding only a dictionary for definitions, which is very useful for reading text. But if you compile text, you have little use of such a dictionary that is completely in the target language. What you actually need is a dictionary with translations from your language to the target language.
So, what I am missing is a shortcut, that accesses an input method (e.g. think of a text field) where I can just enter a word I'd like to have translated and either automatically enters it to the place where I am compiling my text, automatically sends it to clipboard or gives me options to do so.

What workflow would allow me to quickly look up an ad hoc translation?posted in Feedback
So, this extension is a companion for years already and one of the first extnensions I am installing on most browsers, but recently I get more and more annoyed by the fact that id doesn't seem to offer any translation. Why? Until recently i just googled a word and in 8 out of 10 cases it showed me a translation with a couple of alternative meanings. However, I moved away from Google and big US tech in general. Currently I use Startpage as my default search engine in firefox and added a custom search engine, that sends a translation to Startpage by adding "in English" to the query, but I am not happy with this, because I often forget to enter the custom search engine word at the beginning and because Startpage only offers a single translation and no nuance.
Can I set up dictionaries in a way to also give me a simple translation for languages like German-to-English, English-to-German, Chinese-to-German/English, English/German-to-Chinese?
