Hola. Quisiera hacer un comentario. ¿Podrían modificar la extensión para que los profesores podamos agregar palabras en nuestras clases? Esto puede agilizar el proceso de aprendizaje y utilizaríamos mucho más la sección de vocabulario. Por ejemplo: estoy compartiendo mi pantalla para analizar una noticia con el alumno, selecciono una palabra nueva y queda guardada en el vocabulario del estudiante. Espero su respuesta. Saludos. P.D: Los estudiantes hasta ahora están conformes con el rediseño del aula virtual.

This extension is really good but I face some issues first, when I open my saved vocab link the page opens perfectly but the message bar opens and it's not able to close I tried a lot of times to close the message bar I tried many different and different browsers but no I didn't find any solution. also, expand your vocabulary range because sometimes I don't find the meaning of words in the preply vocabulary extension it gives me errors: sounds like words are not available please reply developers team sees it seriously because the bar really gives a terrible experience when we practice our saved vocabulary. I hope you consider my suggestion and solve this problem.

TO SOMETHING LIKE IF PHRASE IS HIGHLIGHTET CLICK CNTR OR STH. IT IS SO STUPID THAT IT DOESNT WORK IN SUCH WAY...
