What is Immersion Mode?

...

If a language team has added translations for the buttons and headers on FirstVoices, you can use Immersion Mode to navigate through the site in your language. When Immersion Mode is turned on, a lot of the English will disappear – but English translations, alongside audio pronunciation clips, can be accessed by using the Immersion Helper button.

As an example, if I click on the ḥiškʷiiʔatḥ navigation button for "Songs" – nuuknuuk – a reminder of the original English label as well as an audio play button will appear.
