But the issue issue would be the same for other languages.
The problem is that the translation dictionaries I've got on the Forma appear to work only on individual words. If I highlight a single word, the dictionary option comes up and I can change dictionaries to the right language. But, if I highlight more than one word, all I get are options to Undo Highlight, Add Note, and Search (leading to Search in Book, Search Wikipedia and Search Google).
Is there some kind of option or add-in somewhere that would just present me with an actual local translation of whole phrases?

I'd be interested in such a feature too (Kindles have it). As things stand now, I'll have to open the book on my computer and copy-paste the phrase into Google Translate. A clumsy and bothersome workaround.
