Range translation

Translate selected cells without touching the rest of the sheet.

Choose a cell, range, column segment, or set of selected cells and translate only that working area.

← All features
Translate My Sheet configured for the current Google Sheets selection
With Translate All Cells disabled, the add-on processes the selection currently active in Google Sheets.

Why it matters

A small copy change should not require processing every row in a large spreadsheet.

01

Precise scope

Use the Google Sheets selection you already made instead of creating a separate temporary document.

02

Faster test runs

Translate a few representative cells first to compare engines, language choices, or custom instructions.

03

Same formula protection

Formula cells inside the selected range are detected and skipped.

How it works

Three steps in the sidebar.

  1. 01

    Select the cells

    Highlight the exact range you want to translate in Google Sheets.

  2. 02

    Choose Selection

    Set the sidebar scope to the selected cells.

  3. 03

    Translate

    Choose an engine and target language, then start the job.

Good practice

The add-on translates the current selection. If you change the selection, confirm it before starting another job.

Translate the sheet in front of you.
