I'm having shortcut conflicts while typing, and I wish I could disable all Perapera Chinese Popup Dictionary shortcuts. - by tonnaso, 8 months agoRated 5 out of 5

- by Henry, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5On Firefox quantum. Don't know the reason why but it's a bit laggy. Sometimes it will take a few seconds and moving the mouse back and forth before it will pick up a word.

posted 3 years agoI've added this feature. Hope you like it. It works by pressing the keys in order. Hope it is sufficient. - by Firefox user 13663373, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5Very helpful popups that many times are better than a paper dictionary (and a whole lot faster! :) )
- by Firefox user 13616605, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5This add-on is quite handy for language learners trying to navigate the Internet in Chinese. I appreciate that there are options for both traditional and simplified characters, as well as different ways of rendering Mandarin pinyin. And it just got handier; I'm excited to see that support for Cantonese has been added in version 2.1!
After a quick check, it appears that the Canto translations are accurate, but the romanization is a bit weird... or it's a system I'm not familiar with. Yale and Jyutping are the two most popular systems; my preference is for Yale. Perhaps using CC-Canto and CC-CEDICT with Cantonese readings would help: http://cantonese.org/download.html
I look forward to seeing how this add-on progresses! - by Firefox user 12379062, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5This appreciated carry-over works quite well, just like its much-missed predecessor.
Any hope of the Japanese version also being revived?

posted 3 years agoThanks for the reply. I didn't know their FF Japanese version wasn't working with Quantum. When I have time I will try to get a version up, but it seems like it will take a bit more time. Cheers
RE: Gonna take a bit more time to fix I think, as the holidays are coming up. Will keep you posted.
