Learning Japanese with Firefox
kawaii!!!
Like I had mentioned before I’m once again in a quest to learn Japanese, but this time its for real, I promise 
Anyway I’ve been looking at the different resources and methods to train oneself in Japanese and found a couple of Firefox add-ons that can help you learn Japanese while surfing the net. These are the one’s I thought would be the most helpful but by no means its an exhaustive list. To see more options visit the Mozilla add-ons page.
- Furigana Injector: “Looks up the readings for kanji words and inserts them as furigana.”
- Kanji-li: “What the program does is simple. It replaces the first letter of a word with a kanji of similar meaning. For example, the word read might appear as 読ead.” Unfortunately this add-on is only available for older versions of Firefox.
- FetchImi: “FetchImi is an English to Japanese pop-up translator. Read English web sites with pop-up translations just by moving the cursor over the word you want to lookup. ” This add-on is till “experimental”.
- Ubiquity: Ubiquity is wonderful “do it all” tool for Firefox. It comes with a translation command that can be very handy.
This add-ons are definitely helpful for intermediate and advanced Japanese students but not so much for beginners like me.
