Hi
How do I pick a language to translate to, not my "home" language? For example, I have Edge using English as its base language, and mostly if I want a translation, I want it translated into English. But say I want to see how a page translates into French from English. So I want to force a new translation. So far even if I add "French" as a new language, I cant right click and request that translation...

The method you yourself found is the solution. so just go to Edge settings:
edge://settings/languages
add your language and check this box:

@HotCakeX I believe the asker's question was regarding translating a page *from* english *into* another language, not the other way around. This is also a problem I'm having.
I've attached two images demonstrating how the "Offer to translate" option is greyed out for English.

@Dave Belcher @HotCakeX Ok, I guess I've figured it: To be able to translate pages from English into another language you need to remove English from your preferred languagens in Preferences>Languages. Since Edge runs on the system language (at least on MacOS), it will continue to run in English even thou it's not listed.
