I have spell check turned on in setting to check as I type. And yes I have two dictionaries downloaded and installed. But as I am working inside a program and I have to enter data into a text field, if I want it spell checked I have to right click and then click on Spell check for every field that I enter text into. For a while last week it was working without having to do that, and I had done nothing to make it happen. It was nice. Since then I realized I want spell check on. But I can't figure out how to set it so that it turns on for every field that I click into to enter text. Any ideas?

When the automatic translation pop-up appears, Firefox incorrectly detects Kurdish text and labels it as Persian. Other browsers, such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, accurately identify and label Kurdish as its own distinct language. This misclassification disrupts translation accuracy and usability for Kurdish speakers. Please update the language detection model in Firefox Translations to correctly recognize and label Kurdish.

I've followed all of Firefox's suggestions for translating web pages without success. (I have the latest version of Firefox.) No translation panel automatically opens when I visit a page in French. I have no translation icon in the tool bar to click, and "translate page" doesn't appear in any Firefox drop-down menus. No translation options appear when I right click on the web page. Any suggestions?

Hello,

My Firefox interface is set to Ukrainian, and everything in the browser is displayed in Ukrainian. However, when Firefox shows a notification about an available update, the text of this notification is in russian.

I do not know russian and have never selected it anywhere in Firefox or in my operating system. I would also like to explain why this matters to me: seeing russian in my browser is genuinely unpleasant, because russia is waging a terrorist and aggressive war against Ukraine. For many Ukrainians, software defaulting to russian is not a minor localization glitch. It is something we actively want to avoid.

Why does this happen, and how can I make sure update notifications appear in Ukrainian?

System details: – Firefox version: 156.0.1 – Operating system: Windows 11 – Where I downloaded Firefox: mozilla.org

A screenshot of the notification is attached.

Thank you for your help!

I don't have that translate icon in the address bar, never did, not on a single page. Can i get that somehow? And, when attempting to access the firefox translation settings through;

about:translations

I receive the following error message;

"Your device does not meet the minimum requirements to use this feature. Try on another device" Please check the screenshot i uploaded as well.

Even though i do see several language & translation settings in the regular preferences menu, and even though i see a page full of settings containing the string "transla", Firefox inline website translations are only accessible through the context menus using a right mouse-click. There, i can select a source and target language and all the options seem to be there and functioning well. I just don't have anything related to translation in the address bar, the regular alt-key menus, or the hamburger menu. Also not when customising the buttons etc.

I also have to say that the quality of the translations is nowhere near that of the ones on the Google Translate page, which surprises me somewhat, since it should have access to the same bucket of linguistic data as the website (i assume it works through an API), or am i incorrect in my assumptions ?

F.Y.I. My device is a PC running Devuan (Linux) with FF v140.8, my gpu is outdated so GL (hardware rendering) hasn't worked in a while, i'm using that shoddy Nouveau driver, but that hasn't caused any problems, i bought a 2nd hand supported GPU about 2 years ago, but i just can't be bothered to install it...eheh).

Since the last update (V. 148.0 ) the translation button in the search bar has gone. I have checked settings there is nothing and there is no translation option in thew hamburger menu. What have you done !!!

Hello,

I'm quite excited about the translation feature as that was one of the features that was always really useful in Chrome but I missed in Firefox. However, I noticed that Korean is not among the languages for translation.

Is there any timeline or plan to add Korean to the list of languages? Are there any complications that prevent Korean being added at all?

I'd highly appreciate if you could give me some insight into this.

Kind regards, Christopher

I am currently using the Vietnamese Telex IME of Windows 11 and I just found out that whenever I type the "." after any word, that word will be deleted. This is how to recreate the bug: 1. Type "hello " 2. Backspace (delete) 1 time, now it is "hello" 3. Type "." and the whole thing is deleted, turned into an "." string instead of "hello."

I just wanna ask if there is any setting or config that can solve this problem. Thanks.

When you click the link about someone not trusting Chinese or Russian CA's the page automatically switches the first row of suggested articles and much of the other info (like the thumbs up & down box) to Russian (and it may continue in Russian when you go to another page because it's switching the preferred language choice box).

It's giving the middle finger at those who need info about untrusted CA's and happen to click on it.

The question is from 10 yrs ago but the problem is current.

I am using Firefox version 150 with the Japanese UI, and I found untranslated text. Please report this issue to Bugzilla. I cannot create an account. The phrase is: "The server at ... is taking too long to respond."
