Review by Risto
Rated 4 out of 5
by Risto, 8 years agoATTENTION il est IMPERATIF d'aller à "about:config" et de passer "dom.webcomponents.shadowdom.enabled" en TRUE.
Ensuite, c'est parfait : d'un double clic sur un mot on a une définition satisfaisante qui apparaît dans une bulle juste au-dessus. Très pratique et plutôt fiable, je l'ai testé sur la dictée de Pivot et même les mots compliqués passent. Juste quelques problèmes avec quelques participes passés.
Par contre, si on pouvait trouver en plus quelques liens pour ceux qui veulent aller plus loin dans leur recherche, ce serait un+.... et une 5ème étoile!!
Merci pour le taf!

- Rated 3 out of 5by Engineer Gaming, 4 days agoThis piece of sh*t never ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT THE WORDS MEAN WHEN I DOUBLE CLICK. How do you not know what turgid means? It's been a word since the 1600s. Jesus christ
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16885962, 5 days agoIt does not define anything anymore, even simple words.

- Rated 1 out of 5by bishwodahal, 13 days agoI used this extension for a long time, but it stopped working completely since past couple of months.
I have been using this "Dictionary on Click" addon, it supports meanings, pronunciation, and parts of speech too. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17275815, 23 days agoUsed to work perfectly. Now it's useless, broken, garbage. Any word, including basic words like the word "word", just shows "No definition found."
Worthless in its current state.
Use "Dictionariez: Your Dictionary, Your Language" instead. It actually works. - Rated 1 out of 5by dzhmil, 25 days agoIt inexplicably stopped functioning a month or so ago :-( Which is a huge shame because I found this extension extremely useful while it lasted! I hope its developer finds the time to fix it at some point

- Rated 1 out of 5by Alexaction, a month agoAnother extension plagued with abandonment issues, such a shame.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Vivek, a month agoI think this add-on is now unmaintained. The definitions for the words doesn't so up. "Sorry no definition found" appears even for a word like "navigate".
This add-on appears to be really buggy and even then this retains recommended badge by mozilla. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17743303, 2 months agoDoesn't work. No Definition found is all you get now.
- Rated 1 out of 5by stk1, 2 months agoThis extension just doesnt work at all. All the words I highlight say no definition found
- Rated 1 out of 5by Moo, 2 months agoDoesn't work at all anymore, sad :( Hard to find extensions like these, many don't work anymore.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18984254, 2 months agowould love this. the only problem is it doesnt support multiple languages at the same time.
- Rated 4 out of 5by MrMoodle, 2 months agoI appreciate this add-on and the work that went into it. One crucial area of improvement to make it much more user-friendly would be to disable the popup in writing/input text fields. I find myself constantly closing the popup in search fields or text input when I'm not interested in definitions, but a word gets highlighted, and it's a nuisance.

- Rated 1 out of 5by faird, 3 months agoThe addon is abandoned. It doesn't work any more and the dev is ignoring the submitted fix: github.com/meetDeveloper/Dictionary-Anywhere/pull/85
- Rated 2 out of 5by bryanmac199, 3 months agoI've used this extension for years, and found it was a must-have for me, even at work. However, it no longer works.
