yomichan VS clipboard-inserter

You read the schemas, usually it's enough for devs a waste of time asking r/LearnJapanese

I made a Yomichan dictionary from CantoDict, and there are other dictionaries linked made by other people I wanted to share.

I wish I would of known about Yomichan years ago, I can see a lot of work went into the project. Yes, for most web pages a Chrome extension should be able to get the sentence that the word came from. The relevant code for Yomichan might be from this page https://github.com/FooSoft/yomichan/blob/master/ext/js/app/frontend.js

You can use mokuro on any manga you have in digital form to turn the text into selectable text and read it in a PDF reader of your choice. You can then combine this with the Yomichan browser extension and dictionaries of your choice to allow you to instantly look up any unknown word you encounter when reading manga, with a single button press.

Download kiwi browser, after that go to extensions, and download yomichan. Download the dictionaries (they can be use offline). Finally, go to the site https://ttu-ebook.web.app (It can also be use offline), you can read any kind of epub file that you may have within your device. After setting up everything, you can read japanese with the fastest looks ups without using internet.

Capture2Text (I usually use this with games, manga, etc. in tandem with Yomichan's search page)

What I am looking for is something like this: https://foosoft.net/projects/yomichan/

You are not the first to miss this functionality: https://github.com/FooSoft/yomichan/issues/1987

Consider trying Yomichan. In the popup dictionary, click on the Kanji. If you scroll down, there are a bunch of reference numbers for different Kanji books and dictionaries (including Kodansha Compact Kanji Guide and Kodansha Kanji Dictionary).

Textractor hooks text into your clipboard, so Clipboard Inserter will insert it to the browser page.

Best case scenario, you're playing a game or using Bookwalker. Often, especially if the game is a visual novel (play more voiced visual novels! They're great for learning! Avoid the ones on Steam!), you can use a program called Textractor to extract the text out automatically to make lookups easy. I use Clipboard Inserter with this site for a really nice setup that counts characters and time as you read.
