Translator app recommendations? (lemmy.ml)

I've been trying to move away from Google Translate, it's so good though. Any adequate open source alternatives? Bonus points if it has a phrasebook and if I can import mine from Google.

My opinion is the best translation program:

Firefox Translations provides automated translation of web content. Unlike cloud-based alternatives, translation is done locally, on the client-side, so that the text being translated does not leave your machine. Firefox Translations was developed with The Bergamot Project Consortium. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefox-translations/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search
Desktop version of Bergamot MT: https://translatelocally.com/ translateLocally is a privacy focussed machine translation application which translates content privately and securely on the user's own computer.

Not open source but privacy friendly:
