설명

Furiganify! is a lightweight extension for Safari that adds Furigana reading aids (Ruby characters) to Japanese text.

All processing occurs on your device to ensure maximum privacy. Furiganify only reads the content from webpages you explicitly select. No data about the webpages you visit or their content ever leaves your Mac.

Both Latin characters (Romaji) and Hiragana can be used.
Furigana can be added to the whole webpage or only to a selected segment.

It could be better!

I really like being able to read kanji now! But I wish I didn’t have to click the button everytime, I wish I could just leave it on for as long as I need it.

Great but too flawed for learning Japanese

This extension has the potential to be great, and I'd really like to rate it 5 stars. Unfortunately, there are too many mistakes in translating kanji to furigana for it to be viable for learning Japanese. This is rectified somewhat if you switch from the default IPADic to the System Dictionary, but there are still mistakes.

I have to recommend Safarikai over this, but if the mistakes are fixed in the future then I think using Safarikai in tandem with Furiganify! could be an excellent way to learn Japanese vocabulary for beginners.

Not Perfect

This might be good for beginners but if your Japanese is fairly advanced and you just need the occasional assist, it can be kind of annoying.

- I have found quite a few mistakes.
- Does not continue working as you browse, so you have to hit the button every time you go to another page.
- VERY CLUTTERED.

I gave it a three because I would like to see where it goes from here, so I am not deleting it, but it is no replacement for Safarikai which also had a dictionary and only showed the reading if you hovered over a word, so no clutter. Would have given it a 4 if I had not found mistakes.
