# Form

This method of manually translating text is *very similar* to the [Translate Text Shortcut](https://docs.translate.technology/features/manual-translation/translate-text-shortcut). In fact, the form is *exactly* the same. The only difference is the way you access the form. The shortcut is the easiest and most convenient way to get the form. But you can also bring up the form by clicking a \[Translate] button or using the `/translate` command with nothing after the command.
