* Multi-Language Support: Translate from any Wikipedia-supported language to any other.
* Rich Information: Displays short descriptions and article summaries.
* Full History & Bookmarks: Keeps a log of translations and allows saving important ones.
* Searchable History: Quickly find past translations.
* Quick Actions: Copy translations and open Wikipedia articles.
* Modern UI: Clean interface supporting light and dark themes.
