Translate a word on the current page

Is it possible to replace text on a page that is in say French with English without changing page like ubiquity does on firefox
So you could highlight a word and say press enter and it will change that word to your desired language

thanks for any help

That seems a little strange. Wouldn't a dictionary with multiple possible meanings so you can decide based on context be more useful? But yes, it'd certainly be possible.

I was thinking you could just use google translator but im not a coder so i wouldn't know how, there is a version in ubiquity for opera but it doesn't put the translation in the page but goes to google translator to show the results
