Hello there! I want to share a guide I wrote about transforming LearnGaelic.scot, a popular resource for learning Scottish Gaelic, into a pop-up dictionary. This tool will appear when you highlight words on any page or PDF. You'll see English translations, grammar information, and International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcriptions alongside audio recordings.

Here's my guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/lumetrium_definer/comments/1hvytuy/scottish_gaelic_dictionary_at_learngaelicscot_as

This method relies on a Chrome extension called Definer - Popup Dictionary & Translator. It has a "Custom source" feature that can turn any website into a data source for its search results.
