1)\tHighlight any word in the browser to view its definition, audio pronunciation, and synonyms.
2)\tSearch the definition, pronunciation, or synonyms of any word via the toolbar extension.
3)\tFurther research any word via links to Wikipedia dictionary.
4)\tSave any words to your personal vocabulary list so you can keep a history of words you’d like to learn.
5)\tOpt-in to a daily email that randomly selects and emails you words from your Saved Words in order to help you learn them over time.
6)\tAbility to toggle extension on or off as desired.

Damian Z (ID: 0000005bd65a3199) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 09/12/2023 This is not accurate to learn languages. You can not show translation on right click menu <- I don't understand why to not translate, and another reason for 2 stars is saved words does not appear on saved words list. Sorry but not sorry.
