Google Dictionary only exist in the form of a Google Chrome addon. Does the addon use Google Translate's definitions?

  • I’m voting to close this question is asking about a specific extension but general culture and questions about installable software are off-topic. On the other hand, questions about extensions might be on-topic when they are related to using a web application, not about how they work. The information about the extension can be found on the respective extension page listing linked in the question. Commented Nov 10, 2023 at 15:58

It was initially a separate service that spun out of Google Translate but is now incorporated into Google Search. To invoke it, use the define keyword with the term you want to get a definition of. Example:

define dictionary

The Chrome extension merely allows you to highlight words and get a pop-up with Google's dictionary definition without going to Google Search separately.
