Lookup Word in Dictionary
Description from store

Just right-click on the selected text and choose
* Lookup 'text' on the world famous, blue and red colored online dictionary
context menu item and there you go!

It was easy, huh?

Or alternatively you can hit "Alt + W" shortcut to get the selected text looked up or if there is nothing selected, then the online dictionary is started up on a new tab. (Since version 1.2)

HINT: Just be careful not hitting "Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) + W" instead, because it will close your active tab. But in case if you did so, don't panic, you can recover that tab by pressing "Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) + Shift + T".

Everything is great with the dictionary but using the extension and looking up words open a new tab instead of a pop up bubble right there on that page, it shouldn't be like that. One star less for that caveat.

I actually would want it to show me results without leaving the page I'm in. Maybe I can just double click or just right click and select Lookup, but the result shouldn't take me off my page.

Interesting and useful extension. Despite the fact that multiple versions of Merriam Webster's Dictionary Chrome Extension exists, this is serving me adequately. Many Thanks!

It doesn't work correctly. When you click on the icon only the app window that belongs to chrome web store appears.
