- (2025-02-07) Bob Loucks: Useful, and unlike the one misguided comment below, it pops up right on the same page as advertised. Four nifty options : )
- (2024-08-13) Harkirpa Singh: This is no good at all, it opens a different window to search for that word. I can do that manually - what's the point of an extension if it can't open a brief pop-up on the same page with the definition?
- (2024-06-21) Bailey Liang: Very convenient and intuitive! 5/5!
- (2024-06-07) Tháng Tư: Great Extension!!!
