## Description

Popup Dictionary with Pronunciation is a handy Chrome extension that lets you double-click any word to instantly view its definition and hear its pronunciation. Unlike typical dictionary tools, it also tracks all the words you've looked up each day, helping you build and reinforce your vocabulary systematically over time. 

This extension prioritizes your privacy— it doesn't have access to the words you look up, ensuring your data remains secure. By focusing on words you've encountered in context, it aids in easier memorization and vocabulary retention without overwhelming you with unfamiliar terms. A perfect companion for learners and readers aiming to expand their language skills seamlessly while browsing the web.
