With Gesture Translate you don't need click in anything to translate any text in a webpage.

How to use the gesture translate add-on
1) Select the text
2) Move the mouse cursor in a 360⺠full circle or zig and zag movements (left, right, left OR right, left, right)
3) The translated text will be showed in the status bar, if you click in the translated text on the status bar, the google translate page will be open in a new tab. You will might need to use https://addons.mozilla.org/pt-br/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/ to bring back the status bar to FF.
