Has phonetic alphabet

very nice. personally i think its better than "Dictionary Anywhere" as it can do pop up definitions too... but it doesnt suffer from the issue of not being able to define a word because the double-click selected the space after. also, if it cant find a definition, it leaves a "more" link to quickly bring up another tab to a dictionary site of your choice (i chose "Urban Dictionary")! just remember to go thru the options and pick your search engine...

Works like a charm.

After using this extension for more than a year I moved on from it cuz of how it looked in dark mode. But came back to it just after a month ( cuz this one hardly ever shows me "definition not found" ) and was really delighted to find the theming issue solved.

Lets you select what dictionary source it polls, which means it also works through a VPN whose dictionary requests get blocked by google. Extra bonus points for light/dark theme choice!

Latest update seems to have fixed it. Thanks!

HEADS-UP: Mozilla has disabled new versions of this extension as per June 1st, 2019 which has broken it. The dev is working on a fix but this is not his fault so kindly stop review bombing this. To users looking to install: no it doesn't work right now but it will.

EDIT: It just werks on my machine again as of 23/06/2019. 5 STARS

EDIT: Tried it again on July 1st and it's working again. This is one of those extensions that, in addition to being incredibly useful, shows the potential of Mozilla's Firefox platform and the ingenuity of the developers who write gems of addons like this one. Thank you for your time and effort!

I hate like heck to write a bad review for such a useful tool, but a couple of days ago, it just stopped working. All results now display simply "no definition found". Five stars easy when it's working.

It seems to be fixed now. I'm back to loving it.

goodjob, it would be perfect if you added the read button which converts the text to voice.
