Description of the new feature / enhancement

input a word then translate the answer, something like this:
abandon --> 抛弃,舍弃

Scenario when this would be used?

my english is poor, so sometime I have to open a browser to translate a word when I don't know some word.
PowerToys is very convenient, so i am thinking if it has a translate feature will be great!
or create a syntactic sugar that link to translate website like "google translate", thanks!

Thanks for your message. This is a Duplicate of an other issue. Additional comments may be added there. /dup #9095

I found a small script on Wiktionary that can be saved as a bookmark. If there is text selected - and you click the bookmark - it immediately searches for the word(s). If no text selected yet, it opens a small pop-up window to type in.

javascript:(function()
 {function se(d) {
    return d.selection ?%20d.selection.createRange().text%20:%20d.getSelection()}%20s%20=%20se(document);%20for%20(i=0;%20i%3Cframes.length%20&&%20!s;%20i++)%20s%20=%20se(frames[i].document);%20if%20(!s%20||%20s==%27%27)%20s%20=%20prompt(%27Enter%20search%20terms%20for%20Wiktionary%27,%27%27);%20open(%27https://en.wiktionary.org%27%20+%20(s%20?%20%27/w/index.php?title=Special:Search&search=%27%20+%20encodeURIComponent(s)%20:%20%27%27)).focus();
 })();
