From Chrome to a Skritter list

[Luxi]

For a long time I've been extracting interesting new characters and words I find reading on line by copying and pasting onto a separate file, and then importing it to Skritter or Pleco. I just found out that there is a ridiculously easy way to add those words etc to a Skritter list.

 

- Install the free 'Zhongwen' pop-up dictionary in Chrome

There are also Chinese-French and Chinese-German dictionaries. The app works very much like PeraPera. There used to be a Zhongwen extension for Firefox but now I can't find it in their Add-ons site.

 

- Highlight to select the character/word/chengyu that you want to save, and press "s"

 

- If you're logged in Skritter, the word will be added to your 'Zhongwen' Skritter list to study later. 

 

That's all there is to it. So simple!

Zhongwen for chrome is very handy. couldn't find any firefox version though.
