Latin Word Lookup

Version 3.0.0 Update

Latin Word Lookup, formerly Latin Wiktionary Lookup, now includes local Whitaker lookup as the default mode.

This major update adds generated dictionary and morphology data derived from William Whitaker's WORDS, so common Latin forms can be analyzed directly in the popup without leaving the page. The original Wiktionary lookup mode is still available and can be selected from the same popup when you want Wiktionary's article-style entries and inflection pages.

Highlights:
- Local Whitaker-based Latin dictionary and morphology lookup
- Wiktionary lookup still available as an alternate mode
- Double-click lookup directly on the page you are reading
- Improved display for nouns, adjectives, pronouns, verbs, participles, gerunds, gerundives, supines, and irregular forms
- No account, no analytics, and no browsing-history collection

App Description

Latin Word Lookup is a lightweight reading aid for Latin texts in your browser. When you double-click a Latin word, the extension opens a compact in-page popup with dictionary and morphology results, letting you keep your place instead of switching tabs or opening a separate dictionary.

The default Whitaker mode uses local packaged data derived from William Whitaker's WORDS. It is designed for quick reading support: identify dictionary headwords, see grammatical information for inflected forms, and compare possible analyses when a form is ambiguous.

The optional Wiktionary mode remains available for readers who want Wiktionary's entries. You can switch between Whitaker and Wiktionary directly in the popup.

Privacy and data use:
- No sign-in is required.
- No analytics are included.
- The extension does not collect browsing history.
- The extension reads the word you double-click or select in order to show the lookup popup.
- Whitaker lookup runs from local packaged data.
- Wiktionary mode contacts en.wiktionary.org only when Wiktionary lookup is used.
