vocBlocks LookUp: Dictionary, Pronunciation, Learning
Look up new words in English, German, French, Spanish, Russian and other languages. Choose between translation and definition, listen to the pronunciation.
Learn the words you have looked up in the familiar context following reminders in your inbox.
You can:
- Ctrl + double click new words in English, German, French, Spanish, Russian and other languages to look them up and understand any content online. Note: use Alt + double click for Mac.
- Choose between translation into your native language and definition in your target language based on your language level and needs.
- Listen to the pronunciation of new words to recognise them later in speech and pronounce them correctly.
- Learn new words you have come across to start using them.
- Practise regularly to keep up good language habits and stay on top of your vocabulary challenges.
- Benefit from full support from our team if any issues crop up or if you have any questions.
The extension will:
- Provide quality translation into the native language for beginners.
- Provide quality definitions in target language for more advanced users.
- Provide quality audio pronunciation of the looked up words.
- Package the new words you have looked up into a block of vocabulary AKA a vocBlock, for you to learn.
- Save the context in which you have come across these new words to make learning them more effective and fun and help avoid rote learning.
- Send you email notifications to remind you to practise your new words doing various exercises.
- Ensure you will not forget new words by using spaced repetition technique.
- Respect your working space as you will not see any pop up windows when you don't need to use the extension. You will need to hold Ctrl key (or Alt for Mac) when you double click on new words to look them up. Alternatively, select the word and press Ctrl-Alt-W to look it up.
- Respect your working environment: the pronunciation of new words you look up won't be played automatically, you will need to click on the play icon to hear how a word is pronounced.

English, German, French, Spanish, Russian, Belarusian, Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Greek, Estonian, Finnish, Hungarian, Italian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovak, Swedish, Turkish.

- (2017-06-21) Roy G: Excellent extension! So much easier to look up words directly in the browser now. Like it that for English words you get both transcriptions and recorded pronunciations. I also keep it open in a separate browser tab so it works as a normal dictionary! Used it for a few days now, very happy so far.
