How it works

At first, all the words on the web page are "unknown" by default. You can hover over the words and mark them as "known", and the words will no longer be highlighted.

After you mark as many words as possible for "known", the words highlighted are those you really don't know, you can find them at a glance.

It also works for youtube video subtitles.

How to Skip basic words

You can change which levels of words to be highlighted in settings.

let's say you want to skip the level below CET-6.

How to mark faster

  1. Click the icon of extension on the toolbar, then click "toggle zen mode" button in the pop-up panel.
  2. Exclude the words you really don't know by (or win) + Click on the words.
  3. Click "set all words as known" button

This will make all "unknown" words as "known", except the words you excluded in step 2.
