Take for example customer comments on lazada in Thai language .

About this specifically:

are you reading on PC (Windows?).

Chrome browser can be enabled to translate the complete website.

 

Works if the content is actually text and not embedded in images of course.

For the latter case: see above.

Google translate on the smartphone.

An example. The actual text is translated.

But the embedded text in the image is not.

That would require the camera approach with OCR.

This is how a typical text is translated. Quite useful and a single click.

If your using a mobile phone, an easier option than taking a screenshot and importing it into Google Translate or similar is to use the Tap To Translate Screen app.  It sits on top of the app (Lazada for example) and translates everything in view at the touch of a button.  It sometimes struggles to fit everything in if there's too much text, but pretty good overall where I've been using it.

Why are so many Thai messages sent embedded in image format? Are they trying to make translation as hard as possible? My hospital is so bad at this on LINE app I have given up with them.
