Dictionary Search provides a very easy way to lookup (or translate) a
word in a Web page or an email in an online dictionary such as thefreedictionary.com.
Simply select the word you want to lookup. Then right click and select "Dictionary Search for ...".
A new tab or browser window will open with the meaning of the word you selected.
It works for both for
Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird

Other Extensions I Made
- Reload Every (I also wrote this extension) lets you automatically reload webpages every so many seconds or minutes. This can be handy if you have a page with for example sports scores, news or stock quotes and want to refresh them automatically.
