Japanese translate option in firefox translations

[Jeppie]

I think many people including me want to have the Japanese translation option for websites. I need to use now google translate for translating Japanese websites. And I don't like it to use every time google translate for that.

Indeed, Japanese translation is necessary!

Some other Asian languages would be really welcome.

@ED_FrOz Appreciate the feedback!

We're also currently working on supporting Chinese and Korean translations. You can follow those threads here:

We are making progress. We have an experimental translation model from Japanese to English in Firefox Nightly, and we are working both on the other direction (English -> Japanese) and on improvements to this model.

Great to hear!  The tool embedded in my Samsung browser can get a bit flaky sometimes.

Have replaced 2 systems at home with Linux/Firefox/Thunderbird now.  Gotta work out the "gaming" box still... though I have always used FF there dating back into the XP days.  Once I can work things out with Wine/Vulcan and such, that will go open source too.  The only hold out then will be the phones. Still kinda 50/50 on that front.

Keep up the good work guys (and gals)
