User reviews

This is the best extension you could have for learning Latin & Greek. I'm surprised it only has 5.000 users. I used to open dictionary on a different tab. But it starts to feel burdersome when you need to look up many words in a short period of time, disturbing the reading flow. This extension just got rid of that problem by providing you an effortless way to look up the 3 things you need: definition, type, and form.
