  • (2023-08-09) 박준영: perfect, and brilliant app for studying. I love this app
  • (2023-07-14) João: It's a simple plugin, the site's search engine linked to your right click options after selecting text. Easy on hand.
  • (2021-12-26) john: Really helpful for me
  • (2021-07-02) Henry O'Mad: Nothing fancy, just lets you get the definition without having to go to the home page first. A nice addition to the best etymology dictionary.
  • (2021-04-26) Field of Hay: Ok . I did not think the related word box was that helpful and pulling up the etymology of a word can be confusing with all the red pop-ups . Also the ads are annoying when they pop up out of no where ! LOL !😁🤣😂😹😆
  • (2021-04-14) Shreshth Gupta: Pretty helpful extension, especially for building a good vocab.
  • (2020-11-26) Frank Li: This extension only acts as a shortcut to the website itself. But since I catalogue a lot of words as 3-4 character-length abbreviations, due to my heavy academic and industry interests, I use this website frequently. Therefore, the few seconds it saves over creating a new tab and searching the words manually is worth it.
  • (2020-02-18) Alexander: Use it every day. Almost indispensable.
  • (2019-12-12) Dexter Diamond: What a beautiful website, an extension, an idea! Thank you a lot.
  • (2019-12-12) Orange Panda: Takes you to a website instead of keeping it within the extension. And despite how fast it is I don't appreciate having another tab opened
  • (2019-09-29) hamidreza balarak: why u open new tab??!! answer me right here!!!
  • (2019-09-11) Ian Oliver: It works, but what's the point? It opens the result in a new tab rather than inside the extension popup (like e.g. Black Menu for Wikipedia does), so it's no more convenient than opening a new tab and using the search shortcut I've set up (and that's a built-in Chrome feature, no extension needed). I'm actually looking for an extension that will do the Black Menu thing (i.e. let me search and view the results all within the extension popup) for arbitrary websites, specifically so I can set up said extension to search Etymonline.
  • (2018-06-17) James Avenetti: This extension is Straight Forward; type a word in the search box, press enter, and it pulls up the etymology of that word in a new tab on etymonline.com. I have had no bad experience with having this extension, no virus, malware, ads, etc.
  • (2018-04-02) Xinyi Chen: Super nice
  • (2018-03-21) Мы: This is the friggin' great dictionary! Now for Chrome as an extension.
  • (2018-01-04) CRIMX: Very fancy but kinda pointless though. Simply type "ety" and tab in omnibox would do the job.
  • (2017-12-28) H G: to improve belike google dictionary have highlight enhancements if you can... Also be able to search within the toolbar so you dont get directed to site and get result in popup as goog dict can, pls check um up.
  • (2017-12-18) Ming Yang: 功能比较简单,点击后出现搜索小窗,没做到选中单词后跳出搜索窗口。其实只要将etyonline.com添加到searchbar扩展的搜索引擎里,使用体验能比这个扩展好。
  • (2017-12-15) John Smith: 1. It only reads and modifies user data on etymonline.com, which is respectful of user privacy. I wish other apps would be as respectful as this. 2. It's has a simple, responsive UI that gets the job done.
