This extension is inspired by this article-
thank you
Great help learning german
Broken. Doesn’t work, even after following support documentation.
Worked great when I first installed it. It stopped working recently: the message “Kindle Readed Widnow not found: trying again in 1second ..” is printed on the console forever.
Both this application and the bookmark option doesn’t work for me now. On the consule commad it is written: “Kindle Readed Widnow not found: trying again in 1 second..”

I really like the idea and it fits my needs. Unfortunetaly, every time I use the extension I have to manually switch to another language. When the window pops up it’s always EN->EN. I tried to change options, restarts etc. nothing helps. I would be very thankful for an advice.
Thank you so much. I wonder at the people who design things like the kindle reader in chrome – why the hell would they stop us copying snippets of text so we can translate or quote? Mind boggling. And it will only get worse.
Hello. Thanks a lot for this extension. Unfortunately it doesn’t store my settings after save (language settings). Extension translates text just in English (default language). Can you fix it?
Flawless
Até o momento está funcionando! Para quem usar o leitor no Brasil ao invés de entrar no link ler.amazon, é necessário trocar para reader.amazon.com em inglês porque assim pega.
Would give 6 starts if possible. This extension is amazing and it’s just what I needed. I read books in the foreign language I want to learn, and I simply highlight the term or sentence I want to translate, then a new window opens with the Google Translation I need. I am signed into chrome, so this pop-up window is also signed in. I add the translation to my favorites by clicking on the star, then I can export a .csv file containing all my translations so I can then make flashcards (with Anki).
Thank you for making this extension.
I don’t hate it, the Google rating system is putting words in my mouth. It simply doesn’t work… I installed it today into Chrome, loaded up Kindle Cloud Reader and when I highlight text, it just gives me the built in options to “Highlight” or “Note”. Checked Options, all look ok. Am I doing something wrong? If not it seems to be broken…?
I love this extension!
Very useful and simple app to use ,that save time to translate.
practical if you are learning and reading in new language and seek help from google’s translation service
