av brd2184, för 4 år sedanProblem with all words searched giving "Sorry, no definition found." resolved idiopathically. I am running Linux with a VPN, though.

Handy for words that you kind of know, but kind of know there's more to the definition.
Would be neat if you could toggle what the More>> link does. Thinking along the lines of a thesaurus library that could be accessed without opening a new search for "define xyz".
Though, the primary utility of the app seems to be in obtaining definitions with minimal interruption and task switching, so maybe less is more.

postad för 4 år sedanAre you connecting to some VPN?
Can you give me words for which it is returning this error, 'No definition found'?
Also can you if possible provide your geolocation, I mean country, I want to confirm if it is not working because google give different result for other country.
Sorry for inconvenience. I want to look into problem and fix it asap, I fixed some problem in v1.0.8 and then it started working for me and few others, I think there is another problem.

So I wanted to give as little as possible which is meaningful as I don't want to clutter person view, it is minimalist approach. I am working towards fixing little bugs present in extension and will after then focus on features after considerable thoughts regarding the features as I have designed this extension to be minimalist.

- Betygsatt 2 av 5av RiffRaffMama, för en månad sedanIt's good sometimes, but more often than not it can't find a definition, which doesn't make it a particularly comprehensive dictionary. And if a word is a plural or any kind of variation, it can't find it either, just the simple form of the word, and there's no way to get a definition by highlighting a word without the 's' or whatever on the end, because you have to double click, which naturally highlights the entire word.
There's just too many words it can't find. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av InnocuousOctopus, för en månad sedanNo longer functional. If this is fixed I will be revising my review to give the extention the 5 stars it deserves when it is functional.
For those struggling to find a replacement as I was:
Definer by Lumetrium:
- seems to fulfill the same purpose in a more aesthetically pleasing package. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Unknown__, för en månad sedanHasn't been working for a while, keeps saying definition not found
