Features & Capabilities

Awesome Dictionary gives fast, in-context word definitions on any webpage.

How it works:

Double-click a word to open an inline definition bubble. Right-click selected text and choose Define '%s'. Search words directly from the toolbar popup. Features:

Clean, readable definition layout with part of speech and examples. Recent lookup history stored locally for quick re-use. Configurable settings for bubble timeout, auto-close behavior, context menu toggle, and history size. Offline resilience: when the dictionary API is temporarily unavailable, previously cached definitions can be shown. Privacy and data use:

No account required. No analytics, tracking, or advertising. The add-on only sends the queried word to https://api.dictionaryapi.dev to fetch a definition. Settings, history, and cached definitions are stored locally in browser extension storage.

Is Awesome Dictionary 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.

Awesome Dictionary requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

Awesome Dictionary may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
