Disclaimer:
Please note that the instructions below use each browser’s automated machine translation feature. Machine translations are often inaccurate and may lead to confusing text in some areas, especially on buttons and labels if the translated text is longer than the original. The automatic translation function will translate all text on the screen, including the application’s user interface, which can result in unusual-looking or truncated buttons.

Generic Setup for Any Browser

  1. Install English in your browser's language settings if it's not already present.
  2. Install or enable your preferred language and set it as your primary or preferred language for translations.
  3. Enable automatic translation from English to your preferred language before starting the exam.

Once these steps are completed, most modern browsers will automatically offer to translate pages from English into your preferred language.
