Works flawlessly between languages, which is why i havent moved to any alternative, since it does mess up a few words due to a smaller DB than before (people say it used to do wikipedia, but it doesn't anymore)

also they have a catergory on the webstore for applications by google, but yet this one is one that isn't marked by google. curious.

This is the most foolish extension I have ever used. I litrally need to type the word and then get the results. What's the use when u need to do all the donkey work? It's like searching on the web itself! The extension is simply futile

After adding the extension to my browser(Chrome), it hasn't provided me a single definition for a word I double click. I don't know the problem but the extension does not work.

I don't know what I would do without this extension. Also translates foreign words, which is nice as a language learner as well.

I have been using this extension for years, generally, no problem.
However, it would be a huge plus if a search entry — especially a word which one doesn't know the exact spelling to — would return an auto-correct or "did you mean" suggestion.

For instance, I heard the word "accolade", I don't know how it is spelt exactly, and if I enter "acolaid" or "acolade", it would return "No definition found". Instead, it would be nice if it were to return, "did you mean, accolade?" and show the term.

Yes, one can click on "search the web for "misspelt word", but that's an extra step and doesn't necessarily help one find the right word.

Thank you.

tried to use it for translating german words to russian, in "pop-up" and by extension "define" button translation is wrong, if click "more" on pop-up translation on google-translate is correct.

Nice tool!
I wish it would tell me how a greek letter is pronounced after I select it instead of just translating it into english.

Well, it's been unusable since (at least) April. Just gives a "Searching..." text instead of doing anything.

If it works for you, awesome. It's a great idea and extremely useful when it works. I miss it a lot. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like this will be fixed for people like me any time soon, even though I'm running a typical, current Windows 10 64-bit OS, and my extension (and Chrome) are up to date as well.

Edit: 4 years later... still broken. Bravo, Google.

This extension is Okay. But it doesn't define ALL the words. This is pretty useful.
