How to use services from Google as proxy servers:

2. Choose the destination language as the one you speak, here it’s English.
3. Enter the URL of the website you want to access in the source and then wait for it to translate it.

   

4. Once Google is done translating the text, the URL that you entered in the source will remain a URL, but it will become clickable on the destination box
