Okay. but I don't want a new tab to see the definition.

I can find here many words that I cannot find in any other dictionary

The worst extension I've ever seen. I use web extension as a shortcut to look up words by double-clicking them and to get a list of definitions without taking a new tab on my chrome. Unluckily, the free dictionary regarded as the best one for me fail to perform this function for user-friendly's sake. So....., NO THANKS! Strongly suggest to update the version for the convenience of the users.
