Google Dictionary for Chrome For Mac

Google Dictionary for Chrome is a browser add-on that helps you view the definition of any term present on a web page in an unobtrusive pop-up.

The Google Dictionary for Chrome extension also features a search bar where you can manually input words to be explained.

The Google Dictionary for Chrome extension installs into your browser just like any other extension: just navigate to the respective store page and press the Add to Chrome button. Of course, you will be able to see it in the built-in Extensions Manager.

Upon installation, Google Dictionary for Chrome will place a small button next to your address bar, which provides a quick link to the extension’s options.

Note that you get to change the language, set the trigger actions for the pop-up definitions, or decide if you want to keep a word history.

By default, if the Google Dictionary for Chrome is installed and you double click on any word included on a webpage, the add-on will display a pop-up panel that includes the term’s definition.

The pop-ups feature a short description, but if you press the More button, Google Dictionary for Chrome will run a Google search for the respective word.

On the other hand, if you select the word and press the Google Dictionary for Chrome address bar icon, the extension will perform the search in its panel. Keep in mind that you can always activate this panel and manually input terms to be explained.

Bottom line, Google Dictionary for Chrome offers you the possibility to view a short definition for any word without leaving your web browser, or navigating to new tabs.

At the same time, you get to quickly launch Google searches to get more extensive details, or simply switch to the Google Dictionary for Chrome search panel.
