[Feature Request] Add support for Google Translate dictionary #368

Open Vovkiv opened 5 months ago

I don't use other translation services, such as LibreTranslate, but Google Translate offers very handy feature, where you could highlight word and open it in dictionary: зображення

With it, you can see if word has several possible translations, how often this particular translation is used, see synonyms for it (if it even has them) and more.

Without it, translating even single words is not reliable in Dialect, because you can't be sure if it picked most suitable translation and if there other possible translations.

Is this possible to implement this feature in Dialect at least for Google provider?

As example, Crow Translate has this feature for Google provider: зображення
