Our website is written in Dutch, but you don’t have to be. Every modern browser can translate it for you. Here’s how, per browser.

how to translate

Pick your browser

Google Chrome

Chrome usually offers to translate by itself. If it doesn’t, you can trigger it manually.

  1. Right-click anywhere on the page.
  2. Choose Translate to â€¦ from the menu.
  3. To pick a different target language, open the three-dot menu in the translation bar and choose another one.

Want Chrome to offer this on every foreign-language site? Open the three-dot menu (â‹®) → Settings → Languages, and switch on the option to offer translation for languages you don’t read.

Safari (Mac, iPhone, iPad)
  1. Look for the translate icon on the left side of the address bar.
  2. Tap or click it and choose Translate to â€¦
  3. The first time, Safari asks you to turn the feature on. Confirm, and the page reloads translated.

If the icon isn’t there, check that your preferred language is added under System Settings → General → Language & Region on Mac, or Settings → General → Language & Region on iPhone and iPad.

Microsoft Edge
  1. Edge normally shows a translation panel as soon as you open a Dutch page. Click Translate.
  2. No panel? Click the translate icon in the address bar, or right-click the page and choose Translate to â€¦
Mozilla Firefox

Recent versions of Firefox translate pages on your own device, without sending anything to a server.

  1. Click the translate icon in the address bar.
  2. Select your language and confirm. Firefox downloads a small language pack the first time.
  3. On an older version, update Firefox first — translation was added in version 118.
Any other browser
  1. Copy the address of the page you want to read.
  2. Open translate.google.com and switch to the Websites tab.
  3. Paste the address, choose your language, and open the translated version.
