What it does

• Knows German grammar. Inflected words lead back to their base word: “Häusern” shows das Haus, “ging” shows gehen.
• Understands compound nouns. “Krankenversicherungskarte” is split into Kranken + Versicherung + Karte, with its article: die.
• Der, die or das at a glance. Every noun shows its article and plural.
• Save words in context. One click saves the word with the sentence you found it in.
• Works offline. The whole dictionary comes with the extension.
• Private by design. No account, no tracking, no analytics. Nothing you read or save leaves your browser. Privacy policy
