Abstract
Generally speaking, systems, methods and media for selectively modifying an electronic document by restoring user-selected portions of translated electronic document text to their original language are disclosed. Embodiments of a method for selectively modifying an electronic document may include receiving a request from a user to view a user selection of text of an electronic document in an original language instead of a second translated language where the electronic document has substantially all of its text in the second translated language. Embodiments may also include analyzing the request to determine an expanded selection to be changed into original replacement language. Embodiments may also include determining original replacement language associated with the determined expanded selection, selectively modifying the electronic document by permanently replacing text of the electronic document in the second translated language with text in the associated original replacement language, and storing the modified electronic document.
