Upgrade StorageWordPop: free offline dictionary plugin for the PDF reader (Zotero 7–10)
Hi all,
I made a small plugin that shows a word’s definition when you highlight it in the Zotero PDF reader. It shows up in the same popup as the highlight colors, so there’s nothing extra to click.
Works offline, no account or API key
About 147,000 English words from Princeton WordNet
Handles word forms (“despoiling” finds “despoil,” “solidarities” finds “solidarity”)
Includes some social theory terms that general dictionaries don’t have (fictitious commodity, double movement, embeddedness, social reproduction, etc.)
You can add your own terms with a small JSON word list
Tested on Zotero 10.0.6

I’m a grad student and built this for my own reading. Feedback and bug reports are welcome here. If it helps you, you can buy me a co-op coffee at https://ko-fi.com/phdfuel, but it’s free either way.
To install: Tools → Plugins → gear icon → Install Plugin From File, and choose the .xpi file.
If you use Translate for Zotero, you may want to uncheck “Use Dictionary Service for Word Translation” in its settings so you don’t get two definitions.
