I need a free language translation app.

macOS has a built-in translation functionality (not a separate app, though.) To use it, select the text to translate, right-click it and choose Translate.

Doesn't work. I am in Pinterest and highlight a text, right click and there is no translate or text. I tried putting it in another app but no good. Any Ideas?

You need to contact Pinterest support.

Any problem with Apple apps like Safari, Mail, Messages, Notes?

What browser are you using? I use Firefox and I have the Simple Translate extension where can highlight text and a few seconds later an icon appears next to it. I click on the icon and it shows in English what I have highlighted.

Also in Firefox: highlight text and then right click > To Google Translate
