Features & Capabilities

arabic-dict

Arabic Vocabulary, is a browser WebExtension based on open-source dictionary data. Just hover your cursor over an Arabic word and the translation in english pops up!

Word Lookup

The translation files are from the Linguistic Data Consortium (GPLv2). When a page loads, each word is quickly decomposed into prefix + stem + suffix using data from tableab, tableac and tablebc. Note that in Arabic, a particular word could have different decompositions and thus different definitions. The definitions of the prefix, stem and suffix are looked up and concatenated to form the final definition.

Display

All Arabic words on the page are wrapped in span tags, some js is injected so that when the user hovers over the mouse, a tooltip with the definitions are shown.

Wishlist

  • More translation data.

Limitations

  • WebExtension only works on sites that allow content scripts.

User Reviews

Great extension, but would it be possible to have the pronunciation written out in Roman letters as well? The Arabic diacritics are kind of hard to read when it's that small. Either that or giving us an option to adjust the size of the pop-up would be greatly appreciated.

Is Arabic Vocabulary Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Arabic Vocabulary requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Arabic Vocabulary has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
