Longman Dictionary Bubble

English should be learned in English. This is a suitable app for those who believe that.
This extension shows a bubble-type popup for the selected word's definition in Longman Dictionary.

It can show a clickable icon for the popup, or clicking a word displays the bubble immediately. By default, it adopts American English pronunciation, but you can enable "Prefer British pronunciation" in the options to use British pronunciation instead.

If you would like to comment, please leave any here.

For your information, this extension uses Pearson Dictionary API (http://developer.pearson.com/apis/dictionaries). It was supposed to become unavailable at the end of 2017 but still available up until today (May, 2019).
