Hello everyone,

Just a few days after the major release of v7.0, I am back with another update! Dictionariez v7.1.0 is now available, and it is all about breaking language barriers.

4 New Languages Supported

I heard your feedback loud and clear. You wanted more languages, and I am delivering. This version adds native support for 4 new languages:

• Dutch
• Greek
• Hindi
• Persian (Farsi)

This means you can now double-click words in these languages to get instant definitions, pronunciations, and translations. For Persian, I have ensured full Right-to-Left (RTL) support for a seamless reading experience.

Smarter English Lookup

English is a language that loves to borrow words. Words like café, détente, naïve, or jalapeño are common in English texts but often tripped up the dictionary because of their accents.

In v7.1, I have improved the detection engine. Dictionariez now smartly recognizes these accented words as English when you are reading in an English context, ensuring you get the correct definition without switching languages manually.

Better Definitions for Polyglots

For learners of German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, and French, I have tweaked the engine to prioritize Wiktionary results. Previously, Google Dictionary provided definitions in the target language (e.g., German definitions for German words), which could be challenging for beginners. Wiktionary results often include definitions in English, making it much easier to understand the meaning while you are still mastering the language. Don't worry though, if Wiktionary comes up empty, it seamlessly falls back to Google Dictionary to ensure you always get a result.

️ Robust & Reliable

I have also added a suite of new automated tests to ensure these new features work perfectly and don't break existing ones. This makes Dictionariez more stable and reliable than ever.

It's now already available on Firefox, and needs a few more days for review on Chrome webstore and Edge addons. Stay tuned!
Update to v7.1.0 asap and keep exploring the world of languages!

Happy Learning,
River

Hi,
Happy Spring February! I am so happy to start it with a big update! As a solo developer, I have been working hard (with lots of coffee) to make Dictionariez v7.3.0 better. It has more languages, a better design, and helps you improve your pronunciation.

New Languages: A Spotlight on the Philippines (and European languages)

I have added support for Filipino, Cebuano, Malay, Romanian, Hungarian, and Swahili to the floating definitions.

This update focuses on the languages of the Philippines. Now you can use both Filipino and Cebuano. Since I am writing this blog, let me share some fun facts I learned while adding these languages:

Fun Facts: Filipino vs. Cebuano

• Filipino is the national language. It is based on Tagalog. It is the common language used by people across the 7,000+ islands to understand each other.
• Cebuano (often called Binisaya or Bisaya) is the second most spoken language. It is used mostly in the Visayas and Mindanao regions.
• Are they the same? No! They are related (like family), but they are different languages. People say they are as different as Spanish is from Italian. So be careful not to mix them up!
• Spanish Words: Both languages borrowed many Spanish words (like silya for chair, or kutsara for spoon). It is fun to find them!

️ Pronunciation Upgrades (Just the beginning!)

Hearing the word correctly is very important. I improved the audio features to help you:

• British vs. American: English lookups now clearly show the difference between American and British pronunciations.
• Cantonese Support: If you use Traditional Chinese settings, the app now has Cantonese audio. This is great if you are learning Hong Kong dialects or just like Dim Sum.

This is just a start! In the future, I want to add even more accents. Imagine choosing between Mexican Spanish and Spain Spanish, or Australian English and Scottish Accent.

But I need your help! I do not know every language well. If you can help me distinguish accents in your language (for example, which voices sound like Brazilian Portuguese vs. European Portuguese), please tell me! Your knowledge will help me improve the app for everyone.

Better Interface (Because looks matter)

• Redesigned Floating Options: The floating definitions look cleaner and work better.
• Auto-Closing Translator: The sentence translator is easier to use. Just click outside the box, and it will close automatically.
• Aligned Shortcuts: The Options page looks neater. Your shortcut settings are now perfectly aligned.

I want to hear from you!

I build Dictionariez for you (and for myself, because I use it too). If you find any bugs, want a new language, or just want to say hi, please send me a message!

Awesome dict, thank you. I edited the post to correct the JSON format in markdown, and changed the url to the correct one with the query param. Hope it works for you as well.
