- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18765343, a month agoThis is a great extension when it is working. Hope it gets fixed soon!
- Rated 4 out of 5by M-sarpong, a month agoThis Extension has been beneficial to me. Searching for meanings of words whenever I read articles online has become very simple, but it is not working now. I hope the developer fixes the bug ASAP.
- Rated 4 out of 5by John, a month agoVery useful, but for the last days it has stopped working, showing the "Sorry, No definition found." message.
- Rated 4 out of 5by minnie :3, 2 months agoMost of the time, its more than great! I love this add on so much and I dont know what I would do without it. The only reason I rated it 4 stars is that for some reason, for extended periods of time, it will just say "Sorry, no definition found" on words that I know it has been able to find a definition for before, and it does it to EVERY word, even simple ones. I'm stuck in that state right now unfortunately. Other than this, props to the dev!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17143382, 2 months agoVery good. Just wish hitting "more" searched the word in DuckDuckGo, or if the search engine it uses was customizable.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Amathematizer of Apocyphal, 3 months agoI really like the concept, but it doesn't function properly in PDFs (the definition pop-up never appears). Could you fix that please?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Mind, 4 months agodouble clicking shows the word instantly which could be distracting if I just want to select it. I don't like using a hotkey and prefer to do the whole action with the mouse. Could you please add a conext menu option? I would like to select a word and only if I need the definition, right click and choose define from the context menu. Thanks.

- Rated 4 out of 5by choudharydhruva, 6 months agoworks pretty well, would like it if there was multi-lingual support too.
maybe you can do it so that it sets your default language, and when you select a word from a foreign language it translates it to yours and shows definition [can maybe use Wikipedia for that] - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16475896, a year ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17598748, a year agoIt stopped working for a while, and wouldn't be able to define the most common words (or could define them once and then stop working after). Fixed itself when I reinstalled the extension. Great add-on otherwise.
- Rated 4 out of 5by GamOurs, a year agoTrès bonne extension, assez rapide en plus.
Deux petits bémols : on ne peut pas prendre plusieurs mots à la fois, ce qui empêche d'obtenir la définition d'expressions par exemple, et il y a un léger problème de compatibilité pour les mots ressemblant trop à l'anglais.
Pour pallier à ce second problème, il serait judicieux de mettre le mot tout seul dans la recherche, sans "define" devant. (Pour ceux qui ne savent pas, l'extension lance une recherche Google au moment du double-click, "define [mot sélectionné]".) - Rated 4 out of 5by Rodrigo, a year agoit doesn't have a large dictionary, and that's the only complain.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Aleksander Drako, a year agoI do love this addon, though I wish it had more options, like to check something I wrote myself it it means the same I think or even make it show it's own search bar on addon icon click as I believe it is more convenient then getting new tab and googling it.
Still, can't recommend it enough - Rated 4 out of 5by rpowell47, a year ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14181363, a year agoIt was just updated this morning, maybe there's a new bug, but it did not work until I added a trigger key.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Evgeny, a year agoIt would be perfect if there was an option to add a phonetic transcription (because there are occasions when you can't listen) and UK pronounce
- Rated 4 out of 5by hehe, 2 years agoextension works great, any failings literally impossible to fix (doesn't work on pdf.) only bug i've encountered is the popup doesn't go away if you use it on tumblr/post/new. otherwise perfect.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Tarantula, 2 years agoif you could just please add some custom searches to it, and also please more than one language at the time (see definer ext) , this would be perfect, definer is good but its HUGE for almost same thing, I love tiny extensions that are actually useful like this one. please also add ability to disable bubble on some sites or make it smaller or appear on a fixed location (like following mouse cursor so you can take the bubble out of the way of the text you are reading) use some other way to show result.
