Dictionaries

Yomichan can import and use a variety of dictionary formats. Unneeded dictionaries can be disabled, or you can simply purge the database to delete everything.

Deleting individual dictionaries is not currently feasible due to limitations of browser database technology.

Anki Options

Yomichan supports automatic flashcard creation for Anki, a free application designed to help you remember. This feature requires installation of the AnkiConnect plugin.

Specify the information you would like included in your flashcards in the field editor below. As Anki requires the first field in the model to be unique, it is recommended that you set it to {expression} for term flashcards and {character} for Kanji flashcards. You can use multiple markers per field by typing them in directly.

Fields are formatted using the Handlebars.js template rendering engine. Advanced users can modify these templates for ultimate control of what information gets included in their Anki cards. If you encounter problems with your changes you can always reset to default template settings.

Support Development

Yomichan is provided to you completely free of charge. Unlike numerous other "free" services, you are not shown ads, pestered with "offers", or have your browser usage information analyzed and sold to third parties.

If you find Yomichan useful, please consider making a small donation as a way to show your appreciation for the countless hours that I have devoted to this extension.
