Mozilla integrates Firefox Translations into Firefox

JavaScript:
about:config > extensions.translations.disabled > turn to false > restart




On 2019
Users can enable this UI by going to the
JavaScript:

about:config options page, and enabling the 
browser.translation.ui.show and 
browser.translation.detectLanguage settings.
