User reviews
Good extension with a simple, easy to understand UI. Pros: - no learning curve, easy for beginners - simple ui, easy on the eye colors - tells whether the word is noun or verb along with meaning Cons: - No multi lang support - translates only one word at a time. Overall a good user experience
