| 2022-12-13 | Bruce | | Major dictionaries said the word did not exist, but Definitions.net had it, along with an example, and how you pronounce it. Awesome! |

| 2021-09-24 | Firefox user 16247931 | | I've just added this extension and I haven't much to go on yet. So far though, it has shown it's self to be quite handy. |

| 2021-05-06 | Firefox user 14255156 | | It isn't much faster than right clicking, selecting "search google for..." and clicking the first online dictionary that pops up. I don't like extensions cluttering up my toolbar, so if I want to look up a definition I have to move the mouse across the screen and open the overflow menu before clicking the icon, which removes all the convenience of it. If the extension had a button in the context menu to open the popup it'd be perfect because you'd just need to double click, right click, and left click with very little space between each. While only a minor nitpick, the slightest (in)convenience goes a long way with an extension as simple as this |

| 2019-09-15 | k3tonan | | I gave it four stars for the following reasons: -the name of extensions is far to long at least over 45+ characters long. -I have to deal with scroll bars. While doing a test search (e.g. multilingual) the "... and 6 more »" was far off to the side I had to use scroll bar to see it. Note: this only occurs if pinned to Overflow. If it's not I get a slight scroll bar. It's almost like the gray bar where that highlights the Powered by <somesite.com>. This issue occurs with an of the extensions. I wanted them in the Overflow due to its just another set of add-ons taking over my toolbar. While tucking them away in Overflow you see the long strand as in the image for all of the extensions. https://i.imgur.com/gRbfwPP.png Also the pop-up window for is cut off https://i.imgur.com/LsmPCqG.png |
