For firefox addicts,best dictionary extensions

dictionary

If you are a firefox addict and surf the internet most of the time then during surfing you might come across a situation where you have to refer a dictionary for particular word.Now you can add a dictionary in your firefox web browser itself which will save your time and improve your surfing efficiency.

  • Dict: In order to use it, you need to highlight the word, right click on it and select “Define” from the menu. The meaning of the word will appear on a pop-up window.
  • DictionarySearch: Similar to the previous extension, but the result appears on a new tab, and it is based on The Free Dictionary.
  • FastDict: The most advanced out of the three. This extension allows you to customize how the dictionary should be accessed (Alt+Click, Ctrl+Click or Shift+Click), what dictionary should be used (Wiktionary, The Free Dictionary, Dictionary.com and so) and how the results should be displayed (new window, new tab, sidebar).
