Dictionary Tooltip 1.1.2

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

If you routinely visit online dictionary sites and you use Firefox, we think you'll benefit from downloading this plug-in. Dictionary Tooltip integrates right into Firefox, popping up a window with definitions and pronunciations each time you double-click a word or hover and press the user-defined hot key. The program can access nearly 20 online dictionaries, and can quickly call up a thesaurus with the flip of a drop-down menu item.

The ability to enter the exact dimensions of the pop-up window lets users opt for a small footprint or a larger window that won't require as much scrolling. Students, editors, writers, and other folks who routinely work with words will find the free Dictionary Tooltip to be a time-saving solution to surfing online dictionary sites.

Publisher's description

From Rahul Jonna :

Press ctrl+shift+D (or) double-click (or) right-click after selecting a word to see its meaning. This extension is ideal for those who doesn't like to switch their window to see the meaning of a word. Version 1.1.2 is a bug fixing release.

CNET Editor's Note: The Download Now link will prompt a local download of the Firefox extension. To install the extension directly, open the file using your Firefox browser.
