This is an extension that adds useful features to the great vocabulary.com word learning service:
> Show translations in the learning game
Translations automatically show up in the word learning game. Click the language abbreviation to change language.
> Show your examples when practicing a specific list
If you added examples to a list you're practicing, they will show up in the answer section of words.
> Add words from any web page (NOTE: you need to be logged in into vocabulary.com to use this feature)
Select a word on any website, right click, and you'll be able to:
- Start learning the selected word(s)
- Add the word(s) to one of your lists (they will appear in a dropdown menu)
- Add the word(s) to a new list.
The sentence that contains the word will automatically be picked up and listed as an example usage of the word in vocabulary.com. (known bug: this doesn't work everywhere now. Will be fixed in a future version)
> Useful side links
The extension automatically adds links to other dictionaries and services like Dictionary.com, Thesaurus.com, The Urban Dictionary, GIPHY, YouGlish, Google Images, Wordnik, ... to further understand your words. They appear in the word game answer section and on definition pages.
