5. To look up words hover your mouse over them while pressing the middle mouse button (usually this is your scroll
wheel). You can also press and hold shift instead if you like (or your mouse has no center button).
6. To set up your Anki deck for Yomichan select Preferences from the Edit menu and you should see a screen that looks
like this:

7. Now you should add markers such as `{expression}`, `{reading}`, `{reading}` and `{sentence}` to specify how new
cards should be created. Card fields will vary depending on your deck model. If you want to be able to use
*AnkiConnect* tick the checkbox labeled *Enable AnkiConnect* as shown above.
8. When you look up definitions you will have the option to create Anki cards for them with one click. You will see the
icons for performing these actions next to each item. *Icons for actions which update your decks won't show up if
Anki thinks you can't add a fact with those items*. This likely means that they would either be duplicates of
existing cards in the deck or that Yomichan hasn't been properly set up for your deck model.

Here is what the icons mean (in order from left to right):
* Add term in Kana form even it can be written in Kanji (e.g. べんきょうか).
* Add term as it appears in the dictionary including Kanji (e.g. 勉強家).
