Fahm Arabic Pop-up Dictionary
Description from store

Similar to Rikai-chan for Japanese on Firefox or Zhongwen for Chinese on Chrome, except this extension is for Arabic.

Shows translation and *vocalization*, as well as radical stems. Analyzes and break apart any Arabic word for you.

Contrary to other translation tools that may exist, Fahm works offline, propose translation, add vocalizations (ـَـِـُ) and find the stem of word. This is aimed at learners.

Based on the dictionaries provided by Buckwalter (2004) and by the Aratools team (http://aratools.com/).

This is a fork of translate_onhover, from which the rendering engine was inspired.

As of August 2021 the extension does not appear to work anymore. I tried hovering over words but no pop-up appears. If possible, could you update it for compatibility with the newest version of Chrome? Thank you.

finally I found this super easy to use helper for learning arabic. vocalization was always a huge problem when learning new words, as google translate often gives very wrong pronunciation. this popup dictionary solves all these problems by hovering with the mouse. great.

It is the best pop up Arabic to English dictionary by now and it even works with in Google Docs. Şimdiye kadar Arapçadan İngilizceye POPUP şeklinde çalışan en iyi sözlük. Üstelik Google Docs uygulaması içerisinden de kullanılabiliyor.
