## Description

Velore Dictionary is an elegant and efficient browser extension designed to completely transform the way you interact with online text. Developed specifically for readers who frequently engage with articles or foreign media, this tool provides instant definitions directly within your active web page. By simply <strong>double-clicking any single word</strong>, a sleek, minimalist tooltip featuring premium typography and refined gold accents appears instantly. This allows you to grasp the meaning of unfamiliar terms immediately, without the need to switch tabs or interrupt your reading flow.

The extension offers comprehensive support for widely spoken languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, and Russian, alongside dedicated support for Romanian. It operates on an <strong>intelligent fallback algorithm</strong> to ensure maximum reliability. For foreign languages, the system first queries a dedicated dictionary. If the term is not found, it seamlessly switches to Wikipedia in that specific language as a secure backup. For Romanian, it asks Romanian Wikipedia directly, delivering fast results (sadly, there isn't any public API for Romanian besides Wikipedia).

It is absolutely vital to note that <strong>upgrading to version 1.11 is required</strong> for the extension to function properly. The previous version 1.0 contained a critical technical bug caused by strict browser security policies. Version 1.11 completely resolves this error, guaranteeing stability while browsing. 

Beyond its technical performance, Velore Dictionary features intuitive customization options through a clean pop-up menu. Users can easily <strong>toggle dark mode</strong> to reduce eye strain during late-night reading sessions. Additionally, you can disable the automated tooltips on specific websites where they are not required, giving you complete control over your browsing experience.
