About Yomitan
Yomitan is a browser extension that shows dictionary information while reading in the browser. Hovering over text and pressing a key displays definitions, word frequencies, native audio, and example sentences without leaving the page. It can send lookups to Anki as flashcards with a keypress, including audio export, and supports custom audio sources such as Forvo or text-to-speech. It also works on Android through text selection, offers customizable popup themes including community themes, and provides a migration guide for Yomichan users.
