Hello.

Everytime i search something online (e.g. in reddit) firefox translates the post in german. Even though i have translate english cleary turned off.

Do i need to change my browser or am i missing something?

Kind regards!

Bonjour, Après plusieurs essais je n'arrive pas à mettre les dossiers de mes comptes mails en Francais ? ceux-ci restent tels que: - Drafts, - Sent, - Junk, - Trash. Par contre le dossier "Courrier entrant" est bien en Francais. Dans les paramêtres impossible de les changer. Merci de votre aide.

Bei renommierten Firmen werden mit Firefox schreckliche Wortgebilde angezeigt wie z.B. : "Entschuldigen Sie kriegsmann, laß der Inhalt werden geladen" (bei Swisscom), oder Ihr Router ist nicht zuzuordnen Einstellungen sind nur telia möglich.

Schalten Sie Hen Router aus, warten Sie 30 Sekunden, auflagen Sie Sie Herinerein wieder und vert. Sie es-Uneun.

My Thunderbird shows both in english and swedish,it started after an update yesterday. My E-mailadresses are an mishmash of english and swedish,so whats to do? With regards Jan-Erik.

Hi, The translation feature is a great and much-needed addition. It was one of the main reasons I kept using Chrome, so having it in Firefox—on both desktop and Android—is fantastic. Thank you!

I’ve noticed that to access the translation option, you have to right-click the selected text using a mouse or touchpad. The keyboard’s right-click key, however, doesn’t open the context menu for the selected text, so the translation option isn’t available. This makes it inconvenient for keyboard-focused users.

It would also be very helpful to have built-in pronunciation for selected text. I tried several add-ons that offer this, but none worked reliably. This feature would complement translation nicely.

Finally, it might improve usability to show a small popup button beside selected text to trigger translation—similar to what some translation extensions already do. While I personally prefer keyboard shortcuts, this could enhance accessibility for others.

I am missing the answer to my question. 😐

Has the word “Papierkorb” been replaced by the word “Trash” in Thunderbird?

為什麼基於Firefox Browser的網頁瀏覽器,都有這樣的問題?

Hello,

I have an issue when i try exporting contacts from thunderbird as well as when trying to export mailboxes. I have most of the folder names and contacts in greek and whenever i try to export them they look jumbled and unreadable. The english ones look fine as do the special characters, but the greek typing in the folder structures and the contacts is just a garbled mess.

Is there anything that can be done to mitigate or resolve this other than manually renaming everything?

Thank you for the help.

Whenever I use Firefox to open sites like Google and Yahoo they appear with foreign languages like Spanish and Indonesian. Sometimes it asks me if I want translation. My default location on Firefox (weather) is in Argentina. When I open the default location to my settings, they show English (US) as the default language. I also can't change my default location to Los Angeles, California, USA.

I was looking for a Finnish spell checker, but apparently there is none. The issue appears to be that a dictionary is far from enough for checking Finnish as the endings embedded into words do the trick prepositions do in many languages (i.e. house - talo, to the house - taloon, from the house - talosta, from my house - talostani). There is a spell checker engine available (Voikko), but the WebExtension API fundamentally doesn't provide the needed support. Likely LLM helpers will have the same issue.

Questions: Is my understanding correct? Is there any plans that this could be fixed ? Any tricks that could be applied ? i.e. old enough version as it used to work for long time a ago?

If my understanding is correct, then it doesn't make sense to have Finnish language SW-version and downloading page. At least without proper warning that this important feature is not available.

Dear Support Team,

I am writing to report an issue with the folder names in your program.

Although I have selected Polish as the primary language setting within the application, the names of system folders (such as Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts, etc.) are all displayed in English.

Crucially, on my original mailbox (accessible via webmail or other clients), these folder names are correctly displayed in Polish.

I have attempted to change these folder names manually within your application, but the changes do not persist, and the names revert back to English. There seems to be no other option within the app to correctly synchronize or change the display language for these folders to Polish.

Could you please investigate this issue and provide a solution to ensure the folder names are displayed in Polish, consistent with my language setting and original mailbox configuration?

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Sincerely, Szymon

Incoming mail (txt only; no html) is getting more and more unreadable the last weeks. It looks like in the attached screenshot. I am desperate. What can be the cause of this?

At the same time there are problems with outgoing mail. Characters like 9 or : do not appear on screen although I typed them. When I copy the text to another program, these characters do show. Very annoying. Hope there is a solution to be found somewhere!

Best, Mike

Die Ordnernamen im POP3 Konto sind plötzlich englisch: Drafts statt Entwurf Templates statt Vorlagen Sent statt Gesendet Archives statt Archiv Trash statt Papierkorb. Wie kann man auf deutsch umstellen?

After I installed Thunderbird the day before yesterday and set the language to Dutch, the default folders (such as trash and sent are now displayed in English, while on the server side, these folders are in Dutch. So e.g. instead of Prullenbak it says trash. I also have Thunderbird on another laptop, but those folders are in Dutch, both local and on the server which seems to be logical to me. Why is the language of these default files different on both laptops, and why can't I change the language for the default folders on the latest version I downloaded? Does anyone have an answer?

Thanks in advance Lowell Dykstra
