Google Translate for Android works systemwide in Marshmallow

04 September, 2015
The Google Translate app for Android has a new trick up its sleeve, but for now it only works if you're running the Marshmallow Developer Preview. This will, however, become more widely available as the final release of Android 6.0 Marshmallow gets out and starts spreading.

Ayumi, 08 Sep 2015How can we update kitkat to marshmallow?For now you can't do that. However, if you have a Nexus phone (probably only Nexus6 and Nexus9)then you can download Marshmallow beta which isn't yet completed.
For after the Marshmallow is on stable release then you have to see your phone on XDA-developers.com and see i they have made an unofficial Marshmallow Rom for you . (they could have already made a Lollipop Rom for your phone) but be aware that usually there is some bugs with these Roms and they wrote if there is any bugs and what are the bugs (like if the camera or NFC can't work properly).

      They should also extend this functionality to dictionaries as well

              Translate should be built inside the OD rather than a stand alone app

                Maybe this contextual selection would finally allow us some proper offline thesaurus and dictionary functionality on Android - an iOS feature that I deeply yearn for.
