Feature Request: word definitions

It would be nice if when I click on a word I don’t know in a sentence it would show the translation/definition along with the reading. And also have that option for words that don’t include kanji, it seems i can’t click on those at all.

you can already bring up the info manually or automatically when you answer wrongly


not for the answer, for the other words in the example sentences.

There was a start here.
But i agree with you after testing, would be nice to have at least the corresponding translation or a redirect button next to the checkbox.
And of course, for it to work with hiragana/katakana.

I’m liking your post as an upvote

I think this is a thing Bunpro is lacking, built in yomitan like pop up dictionary.

Saying Bunpro already has most words as vocab I think it wouldn’t be to hard for them to implement it they wanted to.

When I used Bunpro a lot I was using yomitan as I would do with a book, but when doing from phone I had no choice but to turn on translation

I think this is something they are currently working on

This would be super nice.

My dumbo self only just realised せがたかい is made up of せ-が-たかい (obvious in hindsight). Admittedly, it’s probably time to start learning dedicating time to kanji lol

unfortunately a popup dictionary would treat the word as a whole if I wanted to inspect 背 separate from が高い so I think Bunpro’s inspector when you click the kanji would be great with a definition inside. Also +1 to hiragana popups! :slight_smile:

Edit: I think best workflow would be if the inspector presented the word as a whole like it does now, and then within that have the individual kanji or hiragana clickable to further break it down
