Features & Capabilities

Reading Japanese online usually means copy-pasting words into a dictionary tab, then a separate site for stroke order if you want to write it down. This extension puts both in the page you're already reading.

Select any Japanese word or kanji, right-click, choose "Japanese lookup," and a panel opens over the current page — no new tab, no losing your place.

What you get: • Word meaning, part of speech, and common/JLPT tags • Full on'yomi and kun'yomi readings for every kanji in the selection • An animated stroke-order diagram you can replay per character • Works on any website

Data sources: Jisho.org for dictionary entries, kanjiapi.dev for kanji readings, KanjiVG (CC BY-SA 3.0) for stroke diagrams.

Built for Japanese learners who read on the web and want to look words up without breaking flow.

Is Japanese Lookup 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.

Japanese Lookup 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 Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. 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 Firefox add-on.

Japanese Lookup is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
