Japanese Dictionary Extension

This is a helper extension for searching in jisho.org.

Usage: just select words or text and hit the jisho logo.

Note that this is not an official extension from jisho.org.

I am a Japanese learner and have been using jisho constantly for a couple of months.

I developed this tool for myself first and I wish this could be of use to you now.
