Dictionary Look Up

Extension to look up words painlessly

Features & Capabilities

Source code: https://github.com/ngntrgduc/Dictionary-Look-Up

Changelog: https://github.com/ngntrgduc/Dictionary-Look-Up/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

Why this ? I'm so tired when looking up some words: Open a new tab -> Type dictionary web page -> Hit Enter -> Type a word to look up -> Hit Enter. This extension will make the look up process less painful because you just need to toggle the extension and look up the word.

Features

  • Support dictionaries: Cambridge, Oxford, Merriam-Webster
  • Easily toggle extension via shortcut Alt + O (default)
  • Easily change dictionary via Tab and Shift + Tab key
  • Get previous word when press arrow key
  • Search multiple word at once, using comma (,)
  • Prevent searching for mistyped words that contain invalid characters, symbols, and numbers
  • Simple but yet powerful, time-saving

Note: Not tested on Mac yet.

Is Dictionary Look Up 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.

Dictionary Look Up requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
