With my sketchy knowledge of German, I sometimes see a post that might be of interest. I think that there was once a means of translating, but cannot now find it.
i use Google Translater for English to German. There is also German to English.
See example for my situation.
I use
https://www.deepl.com/de/translator
This is from my point of view the best translater.
You can copy-paste some text there.
But of course, if I read a whole website, like cnn.com or so then I use also the way, HaWo described.
If you use Chrome, then the possibility to translate it direct with the right mouse-click and choose there, but this offers e.g. firefox not, I think.
Chrome and Edge have built-in translation tools, for Firefox you need an extension, see https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/features/translate/
Something in Chrome did change recently. Before (I assume because of some setting/change I had made), German posts were being automatically translated into English. Now I have to right-click on the page and choose to translate. Not a big deal, but slightly less convenient.

Maybe Chrome wants you to get to know the language better ;D
Because this way you can first think about whether you understand it and then check whether you were good at translating.
By the way, of course I didn't mean that seriously, my lines ... but in principle, IF you want to understand the language a little better, then this definitely helps.
When I watch an English film, I sometimes try to understand it without subtitles. If that doesn't work, I fade in the English text and if that doesn't help either, well, then the German translation.
@everyone
Thank you
