Just what I was looking for!!

Really good, accurate, love that it also gives HSK levels of vocab. Zhongwen on Chrome is great but I am trying to use safari for battery benefits so this is a delight.

Perfect parity with 10ten app

Excellent, high quality extension for reading Chinese. Same functionality as the 10ten extension and just as polished. Highly recommend this

Love it!

I wish this existed when I was a kid learning Chinese instead of using the dictionary … maybe then I could’ve found some good reading material online.
