unable to turn off translations in firefox

hey there, i am having problems turning off the automatic translation within the firefox browser. concerning watching videos, it is pretty annoying, but doing any kind of research at all becomes difficult, if the translations do not make sense or have obvious mistakes. i also personally prefer to keep my apps in english, although i am located in germany.

i tried turning it off with specific sites, i have tried to add exceptions, i have tried to make it translate english sites into english. all without any real progress, i just keep getting weird, german AI-sentences. my only assumption is that it might be related to anti-virus software or vpn-related aspects.

if anybody has thoughts or maybe even a solution, you are very welcome to share. i would really appreciate it and thank you!

Hello,

Please open Firefox Settings (menu -> Settings), scroll down to Language and Appearance, and then to Translations, click Settings, and remove all the languages from the top field. If you want, you can also add the languages you know to the bottom field.
