    Seems to work well! I’ll continue using it because of the offline translation feature.

    Thank you! I’m really enjoying using this extension, especially the function to automatically pops up translation box by selection.

    Is it possible to have an option to choose which languages available on the dropdown list? Sometimes it’s bit difficult to scroll thru a large number of them.

    Thank you again for the extension!

      Hi, thank you, share it with your friends and colleagues to help Linguist become a mainstream tool for translation and replace a proprietary software who care about make money on product, not about quality and privacy.

      For now Linguist no have feature to hide some languages, but recently used languages appears at top of the languages list. I think we have to show a current language (auto detected by text content) at top of languages too, to allow users see recently used languages immediately with no scrolling. For now you can enter language name in a keyboard when you open languages list.

      Thanks for your comment, i’ve created issue to improve https://github.com/translate-tools/linguist/issues/389
