Fixed

Account links open in your language: Connect account, Manage account and Reconnect in the popup, and the header star for Supporters, now open your EZFurigana account page in the popup's language (for example /zh/account in 简体中文) instead of always opening the English page.


Added

Simplified Chinese: the popup, dictionary tooltip, notices, and settings are available in 简体中文, alongside English, Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese. A browser set to Simplified Chinese uses it automatically, and dictionary translations and Explain this sentence work in it too.


Fixed

Disconnected stays disconnected: when you disconnect on your EZFurigana account page, Tsukeru no longer reconnects by itself when you switch tabs, reload, or the page rechecks. Only Connect account in the popup reconnects.
Fewer connection messages on EZFurigana: "Tsukeru is connected" now appears only when the connection really changes, such as switching between Free and Supporter, or after you choose Connect. It no longer reappears when the tab regains focus or the page reloads.


Changed

Words split by links or formatting are read as one word: text broken only by inline tags, such as a link around 行 in 行った or bold on part of 東京, is now read together, so it gets the right reading and one dictionary entry. Both parts open the same word.
Rarer kanji are recognised as Japanese text: 々 and 〆, Extension A and B kanji such as 𠮟, and compatibility kanji such as 﨑.
A Supporter's sentence explanation is kept with the word in My Words and synced with EZFurigana, as on the website.
New keyboard shortcut, the same in every browser: Alt+Shift+A (Control+Shift+A on macOS) turns furigana on and off. The old Chrome shortcut blocked Redo (Ctrl+Shift+Z) in text boxes, and Firefox now uses Ctrl+Shift+F itself. Wikipedia leaves Alt+Shift+A free of its access keys. The popup shows the shortcut your browser has set; if your browser kept the old one, you can change it in the browser's extension shortcut settings.
Disconnecting stays disconnected: after you choose Disconnect on your EZFurigana account page, Tsukeru stays disconnected, even on the website, until you choose Connect account in its popup. The account card checks the connection each time the popup opens, so it shows the disconnect straight away.
My Words no longer shows a "Supporter" label on every sentence.
When Explain needs a Supporter account, its notice now links to the Supporter page.
When the only "sentence" around a word is the word itself (a heading or a list item with just 猫, say), the dictionary popup leaves out Play sentence and Explain, and the word is saved without it. My Words also skips sentences like that saved earlier.


Fixed

Links with furigana can be followed: clicking a word in a link opens its dictionary popup as before, and clicking the link again while the popup is open follows it. Ctrl/⌘-click, Shift-click and Enter on a link go straight to the link.


Added

Example audio for Supporters: dictionary examples recorded for TKGJE have a play button at the end of the sentence, like the word's. It doesn't use your sentence audio allowance.


Changed

My Words has fewer explanations: the review bar shows only when the next review is, the sync line says "Synced 5 min ago", and the Learning and Known lists keep one short hint each.

Dictionary translations at the top: in Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese, View translation now sits at the top of the Meaning tab and shows how many new translations you have left today. Once a word is translated, an AI translation / English switch replaces it. When the day's free translations are used up, the tooltip says how many Supporters get each day.


Added

Sentence audio for Supporters: the dictionary tooltip has a "Play sentence" line that shows the sentence it reads and plays it aloud. It uses your EZFurigana Supporter allowance.
EZFurigana connection: Settings shows whether this browser is connected to EZFurigana and on which plan. Signing in to ezfurigana.com connects it, and the site confirms the first time. If the connection expires, Reconnect fixes it.
Export to Anki: the My Words export menu opens EZFurigana's Anki export, which builds a deck with readings, meanings, and audio. CSV export stays under "Other formats".
My Words entries: click a saved word to see its first meanings, in your display language when a translation is already available. Supporters can play each saved sentence aloud.
When a day's free dictionary translations are used up, the tooltip says Supporters get more each day and links to Supporter. A Supporter who uses up the day sees English until tomorrow.


Changed

Clicking a word under Words in this text opens its dictionary popup on the page.
The tooltip takes its sentence from the clicked word's own line, so sentences no longer run into nearby headings or list items, and closing quotes stay with the sentence. Saved words in My Words get the same cleaner sentences.
Localized tooltips show the translated example for each meaning.
Pitch-accent readings no longer split inside a sound such as しゅ, and long readings wrap the buttons onto the next line.
Furigana requests include a random ID that changes every day, so EZFurigana can count daily users without a lasting identifier.


Fixed

Words with no JapanesePod101 recording no longer play its "not available" clip.


Added

Meaning and Kanji tabs: the dictionary tooltip splits into tabs. Meaning shows the first three senses with a "+N more" toggle; Kanji loads when you open it and lists each character with its JLPT level, school grade, stroke count, readings, and common example words.
Stroke order: the Kanji tab draws each character's strokes in order, with play and step controls. Stroke data comes from KanjiVG.
Word frequency: a Common, Uncommon, or Rare badge next to the JLPT level shows how often a word appears in everyday Japanese.
Pitch accent: the reading shows where the pitch rises and falls, using data from Kanjium.
Conjugation labels: conjugated words show their form, such as 食べなかった · negative · past, with the dictionary form as the headword.
Popup size setting: choose Small, Medium, or Large for the dictionary tooltip in Settings.


Changed

The tooltip opens beside the word instead of covering it, follows the word while you scroll, and closes when the word leaves the screen. Escape closes it.
On narrow screens the tooltip opens as a sheet at the bottom of the screen with larger touch targets.
The tooltip, report form, and notices use a plain paper background.


Added

Firefox for Android: Tsukeru can be installed on Firefox for Android 120 and later.


Changed

On Android, the popup fills the screen, and Apply and Clear return to the page so furigana is added while the page is visible. The keyboard shortcut and right-click menu remain desktop-only.


Added

Korean and Traditional Chinese: the popup, dictionary tooltip, notices, and settings are available in 한국어 and 繁體中文 (Taiwan), alongside English and Japanese.
Display language setting: choose English, 日本語, 한국어, 繁體中文, or follow the browser language in Settings. Pages already open switch to the new language without reloading.
Dictionary translations: with a Japanese, Korean, or Traditional Chinese display language, the dictionary tooltip shows definitions in easy Japanese (やさしい日本語, with readings), Korean, or Traditional Chinese. Translated words appear automatically; for others, a button requests an AI translation. The English entry stays one click away, and new translations are protected by strict server-side limits.
Review reminder: after a week of use on at least three days, the popup occasionally asks you to support Tsukeru with a store review. It opens the store for your browser in your display language, offers Later and Don't ask again, and appears at most three times.


Changed

Translated definitions use language-appropriate fonts and safe Japanese ruby rendering. Saved words and CSV exports keep their English definitions.
Supporter and store-review links follow the display language.


Fixed

JLPT and part-of-speech highlights cover the whole word with fonts that sit low in the line, such as the Japanese default font on Japanese Wikipedia in Firefox.


Updated the extension with a cleaner, website-matched interface, redesigned dictionary tooltips, restored header icons, improved JLPT and part-of-speech styling, and clearer loading and rate-limit feedback. This release also adds TKGJE-first English dictionary entries with JMdict fallback, smoother viewport-based processing on long and dynamic pages, faster vocabulary rendering, stronger caching and request handling and additional security protections for exports, downloads, and dictionary interactions.

Added support for local html files which are opened in the browser.

It does not send or store any local file paths.

This update improves consistency across the UI and settings, especially around ruby color changes and styling.

There’s also a new “Remove custom styling” setting that turns off extension-applied furigana styling, so sites can display ruby text using their built-in/default formatting.

We also added Japanese language support and corrected the review link to open the Firefox Add-ons page.

Completely modernized architecture for incredibly fast, secure, and privacy-respecting performance.

Interactive Dictionary Tooltips: Click any Japanese word to view English definitions, JLPT levels, and Kanji breakdowns!

Native TTS Audio: Hear the native pronunciation of Japanese words directly inside the tooltip popups.

Anki Deck Export: Save unknown vocabulary to your built-in list, and export the entire deck as a .zip
file—complete with CSV formatting and MP3 audio files ready for 1-click Anki importing.

Real-Time Customization: Completely control your reading experience. Change the color, size, and weight of the furigana (ruby) tags matching your exact preferences with real-time live preview.
Refined Bindings: We've resolved system shortcut conflicts by remapping the primary furigana toggle to Ctrl+Shift+F specifically for Firefox users.
