WikiLook is a dictionary look up extension for Firefox. Fast, light, open source (GPL) tool that define (using Wiktionary) words for you without need to open new tabs or extra windows. Ever wondered what mean incunabulum, floccinaucinihilipilification, ይሉኝታ, كوردی, B�n-l�m-g� or lets say лютий? Install this add-on and see with your own eyes.
Easy navigation to Wikipedia.
How to use:
1. Press Shift
2. Move mouse pointer just a bit, still holding it over selected word.
3. Wait half a second.
The other way, moving mouse first and then pressing Shift will not work, to make sure add-on won't interfere, when user decided to type some text..
--or--
1. Highlight any word or idiom with your mouse.
2. Move mouse pointer just a bit, still holding it over selected word.
3. Wait half a second.
