Korean equivalent for Rikaichan?

Postby JockZon » August 14th, 2007 5:11 am

Is there a korean equivalent for "Rikaichan" that translates the text into english when hovering it with your mouse pointer?

I was looking for one of those - but Korean learning material is not so plentiful... yet! :]

I hope there will be one soon ! :-) But Korean is basically easy to read once you master all the letters, and after that's all in the dictionary, I guess. :D

The Korean-English dictionaries that most Korean people use are

and

If using Safari on a Mac, you have the option of installing the LiveDictionary add-on, and downloading a K-E dictionary. The interface works a fair bit like Rikaichan, as passing the cursor over the Korean word brings up the English equivalent in a popup. It's not perfect by any means, but I do find it useful, especially on news sites.

The Naver Toolbar will do this exact function for you found here: The function is called 툴팁사전

http://toolbar.naver.com/home/index.nhn


Or, if you want this functionality outside of the Internet Explorer, you can download 야후미니 which is a small program that places a red marker on your screen. You can move this marker over a word and it will automatically look it up for you. It also has the 툴팁 functionality that is the same as the Naver toolbar except also works outside IE.

I checked it out, and there's also a link to install the toolbar for Mozilla Firefox, but apparently it hasn't been updated for FF 3.5, so I couldn't try it out.
