Overview
This extension replaces certain English nouns on a webpage with their target language equivalents.
This is a simple extension to help you expand your vocabulary in a new language. Once installed, the extension will automatically scan every website you visit for word pairs in the target language and swap in the translations. If a foreign word is giving you trouble, you can easily highlight it and right-click to have the English translation listed for you. Click the word in the context menu to hear the word's pronounciation. You can also open up the extension menu to see the entire dictionary of words for that page, along with information on word gender and number. Extension settings allow you to change the density and difficulty of the foreign words used. Sometimes you might want to quickly read a page in English if the foreign words are giving you trouble: simply press "Disable Once" in the extension's menu to switch the page back to the original English. Alternatively, if you want to prevent pages on a given website from ever being altered, just press "Disable Domain" in the extension menu. The ONLY information stored by the extension is which sites you've chosen to disable it on. No ads, free forever, etc etc. Languages supported: * Russian * Korean UPDATE (v2.0.0): updated for compatibility with Manifest v3, and added support for Korean in addition to the original Russian

Now if this extension would do entire sentences, it would make a lot more sense and be a better tool because it I would assume you could utilize a proper translation tool to differentiate between verb and ...

Guys, this is very dangerous. I understand that you have the best intentions but this thing here is very misleading. First of all, it translates words randomly, no context whatsoever, and often the meanings just do not match. Second, it can't tell a difference between a noun and a verb and just translates everything as nouns. And last but not least, Russian has such thing as cases. Seeing nouns in the sentences like that may seriously harm your Russian because you need to get used to seeing t... Show more

I like it, but it some quality of life changes could be made. Highlighting the words that are changed to Russian would be good for quickly finding them, and not having to highlight them manually in order to see their English translation would be ideal, though not necessary.
