Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

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.

In Settings>General>Language, why is there an option to "Use your operating system settings for “English (Zimbabwe)” to format dates, times, numbers, and measurements." . I can't find any documentation for this. Is there an interesting 'Zimbabwe' format or feature? If so, what is it?

Do I need to add an email filter?

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!

Firefox is ignoring my preferred language and using the Japanese versions of every single website I go to. My only preferred language is English, there is NOTHING else. This has been happening for months now, and the only way I've found to deal with this is to turn on a VPN, and I don't want to have to turn on a VPN every time I'm using this search engine. Just to add extra information, I live in Japan, this wouldn't happen if I were in the US, but I'm not in the US, and the search engine knows that, and keeps putting me on Japanese websites. This is getting really frustrating and it seems like the settings cannot do anything. Also I am aware there is a translation feature, but it takes long to load depending on the page, isn't accurate, and doesn't translate everything.

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.

Hello, I really love the translate functionality. In some pages I see very specific terms which are very specific, can I modify the local dictionary after I download it, add the terms somehow and then share it with my peers using the same website?

Thanks, Bogo

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.

I would really love Armenian language support for Firefox, including web page translation.

(I don't know where else to put this request, sorry if it's the wrong place!)

How do I stop these offers of translations ? Every single page one visits , these damned offers are covering the page and have to be clicked away. It's worse than advertisements ....

Starting yesterday, browsing to the ebay.com url resulted in Korean language text being displayed per the attached screenshot. The same continues today. I tried the ebay options of changing language by choosing a national flag. Choosing the US Stars and Stripes made no difference; I still got Korean text. I tried disabling my VPN; it made no difference. I tried choosing the Canadian Maple Leaf flag and got English text but Canadian prices.

I tried to report the problem (in Firefox) using ebay's contact links; but those links require logging in. I could not because I could not pass the Capcha challenge while remaining in Firefox.

Thinking that the problem might lie with Firefox, I loaded and used the Brave browser. Not only did I get US English and prices straightaway, I was able to login with ebay and report the problem. My VPN is active and has been since I loaded Brave.

Because I have these problems only while using Firefox, I came here to report the problem and ask for assistance resolving it.
