About this extension
## arabic-dict
Arabic Vocabulary, is a browser WebExtension based on open-source dictionary data.
Just hover your cursor over an Arabic word and the translation in english pops up!
### Word Lookup
The translation files are from the Linguistic Data Consortium (GPLv2).
When a page loads, each word is quickly decomposed into prefix + stem + suffix using data from tableab, tableac and tablebc. Note that in Arabic, a particular word could have different decompositions and thus different definitions.
The definitions of the prefix, stem and suffix are looked up and concatenated to form the final definition.
### Display
All Arabic words on the page are wrapped in span tags, some js is injected so that when the user hovers over the mouse, a tooltip with the definitions are shown.
## Wishlist
- More translation data.
### Limitations
- WebExtension only works on sites that allow content scripts.
