Mandarin + Cantonese Dictionary

DEPRECATED NEW users: Considering using the Manifest v3 compatible version of the extension here - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/chinese-popup-dictionary/hnghjfeadioghjpcfpanoaphckiimpdl CURRENT users: No support for migrating wordlists between the two extension versions is available at the moment. If you have no wordlist or are happy to lose your existing one, simply uninstall this extension and install the one linked above.

Based on the Zhongwen extension by C Shiller (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/zhongwen-chinese-english/), this is a fork that adds Cantonese & Jyutping support on top of Pinyin.

All features from the original extension and a few extra ones focused on the Cantonese language are available:

• Supports both traditional and simplified characters.
• Includes both the CEDICT Chinese English dictionary as well as https://cantonese.org/download.html)[CC-Canto] dictionary.
• Shows Jyutping and Pinyin alongside characters.
• As a learning aid it uses different colors for displaying the Pinyin syllables, depending on the tone of the Chinese character.
• Can be turned on and off with a single mouse-click.
• Highlights the characters whose translation is displayed in the pop-up window.
• Also supports keyboard navigation for translating the next character, the next word, or the previous character.
