VAA

Vocabulary Anywhere Anytime

VAA (Vocabulary Anytime Anywhere) is a powerful Chrome extension designed to facilitate efficient foreign language vocabulary learning. Unlike typical vocabulary tools, VAA focuses on discovering natural and effective methods to master words, providing a convenient way for language learners to expand their lexicon.

Key features include: instant word lookup via text selection (drag or double-click), keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Q or Alt+Q) for quick searches, and right-click context menu querying. All new words are automatically saved to a review list, which intelligently schedules repeated review sessions based on the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve, turning unfamiliar words into familiar ones during your fragmented free time.

VAA promotes a four-step language learning process: finding new words during browsing, initial familiarization through quick lookup, periodic review via a smart review list, and finally mastering vocabulary. Its thoughtful interface and features make it ideal for learners seeking an effortless and productive vocabulary study companion within their web browser.

Extension safety

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.

VAA requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. 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 Chrome extension.

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