Defining a Word By Just Double Clicking On It

Saturday, October 19, 2013

There are times that whenever we browse the web there are some words or phrases that we don’t really know the meaning or not even familiar with. Moreover, this becomes very evident to those people who are born with different language or didn't have English as their mother tongue,just like me. Thanks to Google, since whenever there are unfamiliar words we can just copy and paste those words to the search box and hit that search button. But this can be a tedious work to do especially if you are very focus to the topic that you are reading.


Good thing is there is another alternative for this by using a Chrome extension, which is called Dictionary Bubble. From the name itself this is an online dictionary that allows user to look for the meaning of a certain word.

Simple Steps in installing Dictionary Bubble


But before anything else it is needed to install the Dictionary Bubble extension to Chrome browser, after installing the extension then we can use it already. Just a reminder this won't work to the tabs that were already opened before the installation, it must be refreshed so that this extension would take effect. And this extension also is disabled in Chrome Web Store pages.


Now let's get started with our dictionary, for us to use this we need to double-click on the unknown word and then a pop up would appear that contains the meaning. Having hard time to pronounce the word? No need to worry since this can also be answered by using this tool, just click on that speaker icon and you'll have the pronunciation correctly. If you want to dig deeper for the word meaning then just hit on the More button found at the lower right corner of the pop up details. This would take the user to GoodWordGuide.com, which is the source of the extensions definitions.


There would also an icon that would show up at the top right corner of the browser, this is the icon for Dictionary Bubble.


Right clicking on the icon would give the user some options to edit for the dictionary, such as the language to be use for searching the definition.


I hope this would help for those would who have a hard time looking for a word meaning. Try to install this tool now and enjoy its benefit.
