6 jaar geleden geplaatstFor the default layout, Wiktionary doesn't provide that data, so that won't be happening. I'll put in a request and maybe they'll add it one day.
I tried fetching an audio recording of the pronunciation, which worked, but Wiktionary doesn't do a good enough job at classifying the language of the recordings, so sometimes I ended up with Dutch pronunciations for the English word, for example. It was too confusing and misleading, so we won't be seeing that feature yet.
Once Wiktionary improve the API, then that's a different story. - Waardering: 4 van 5door Firefox-gebruiker 14168381, 7 jaar geledenI registered just to rate this extension!
I tried many similar extensions to this, but they all had things I didn't like. Here's a list of everything this particular extension gets right (for me) -
- Doesn't display an intrusive icon next to text that you highlight. (Extensions that do this always cause me to accidentally click it.)
- Opens a box in the top-right of the same tab, rather than annoyingly bringing me to a new tab to see my definition. I can also close the box by clicking anywhere else on the page. Love it! Wish Firefox's default findbar let me do the same thing... >_> Hmmfph.
- Doesn't focus exclusively on translation. (Some of us just like to look-up new words we're unsure of!)
Years ago I had an extension like this, but it stopped working and I could never find a replacement that did all of the above.
Right Click Wiktionary... you da real MVP.
=======================
Edit: Gonna take one star off for the inability to look up proper nouns. :( Hope it's possible to fix that though!Antwoord van ontwikkelaar
5 jaar geleden geplaatstSince version 10.0, it now recommends some "similar words" and you can click those to look up all sorts of words - Waardering: 4 van 5door Firefox-gebruiker 13888648, 7 jaar geledenFantastic customization GUI, perfect result format, only thing holding back 5 stars is the option to change what triggers the lookup (e.g. change from right click and dropdown select to just double click highlighting). This was possible in a pre-FF57 extension, closest thing I see now is icon injection from Dictionary Anywhere.

7 jaar geleden geplaatstOne day... Firefox 61 will fix a bug, and that will make implementing this easier. Hopefully some time after that.
*update: I tried to make it but alas, one cannot open the popup from a "doubleclick" event. That requires a User action, as defined here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/User_actions . So the double click trigger is on-hold for now. - Waardering: 4 van 5door Édouard Lopez, 8 jaar geledenNice Idea but focus on English wiktionary, I was expecting to be able to customize the domain through some settings.
### Error message
I like the fact there is an error message that encourage to contribute, you can improve it by adding a link directly on the page to create, e.g.:
Word **praxique** not found, you can [submit it to the wiktionary](https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=praxique&action=edit)
### Other languages
You should improve the call-to-action by changing text on the [+] button by _show others languages_
Cheer and keep the good work.Antwoord van ontwikkelaar
8 jaar geleden geplaatstThanks for the review and the tips.
Currently the api only supports English wiktionary. https://en.wiktionary.org/api/rest_v1/#!/Page_content/get_page_definition_term
I'll definitely patch the error message and the button text one day soon---ish.
