HotCakeX Hi, Thanks for introducing this fancy functionality! Happy to see it coming back to the Chrome-based Edge!
However, I have two suggestions:
1. It will be even better to let the definition appear once the word is double-clicked or touched (on touch screen). This is a very convenient feature in legacy Edge.
2. Why not make the function available to all regions. For example, my MS Edge doesn't show "define '...'" options when reading PDF or website in immerse reading mode. (I'm in China)
3. Does it support languages other than English? e.g. will Dutch and Chinese also be supported in near future?
Thanks and look forward to reply!
