Translation continuity in Lp ($\Vert f(\cdot +h)-f{\Vert }_p\to 0(h\to 0)$)

For $1\le p<\infty$ and $f\in L^p({\mathbb{R}}^d)$, translations converge to $f$ in the Lp space norm. First prove this for continuous compactly supported functions, using uniform continuity and a common bounded support. Their density in Lp space, together with the norm-preserving translation map and the triangle inequality, proves the assertion for arbitrary $f$. It implies convergence of averages over shrinking intervals, a basic approximate identity argument. The corresponding assertion fails for general $L^{\infty }$ functions, such as an indicator function with a jump.
