Read Japanese anywhere on the web
News, Wikipedia, blog posts, documentation — select any Japanese text and a small button appears above your selection. One click breaks the sentence into words with grammar highlights, or opens the full dictionary entry. No more copying text into another tab and losing your place.
Select the text
Highlight Japanese on any page. The button only appears for Japanese, so it stays out of your way everywhere else.
Break it down
The sentence is split word by word, with grammar patterns detected and highlighted.
Or use the shortcut
Prefer the keyboard? ⌘⇧J on macOS, Ctrl+Shift+J elsewhere. Right-click works too.
