Translate text in Edu

In the free Edu K12 plan, rather than sections of text, words translate one at a time.
The results shown are similar to a dictionary, listing parts of speech with each definition. The word in the specified language is bold.

Translation Settings

To adjust the translation settings, click on the arrow to the right of the language icon in the toolbar.
Select the language to translate from and to in each list by scrolling up and down.

Definitions

To look up a definition of a word, select the dictionary icon.
The cursor changes to the dictionary cursor.
Select the text with this cursor.
The definition appears in the sidebar.

Translations and Definitions in the Sidebar

If the definition/translation seems to appear and disappear quickly, scroll down in the sidebar.

Definitions & translations appear in the sidebar in the same order as the article.

Unless removed manually, definitions & translations remain in the sidebar and are visible each time the dictionary icon is clicked in the sidebar.

To remove a definition or translation from the sidebar, click on the trash can icon in the top right of that definition or translation box.
