It okay. I wish it just pronounced the word in place rather than opening up a new tab but oh well, this will do for now.

in fact it's great if you wanna use it along with forvo right ahead , meaning that forvo is just tedious in in itself as a structure / mechanism of working , you have to write to word and wait to load an entire new page which is dull on the long run , so this extension makes it kinda easier to go right ahead to the english pronunciation in a new website rather than typing each word it from scratch .... the drawback that it doesn't give an quick option / api to fetch pronunciation right ahead ... still great tho
