I am Chinese
the eng_dict contain more than 100K words.
I am an English learner , shyly only know about 4K words.
I hope it can showed different color for 10000-20000 20000-30000 30000+++
then I can take more attention to learn 0-10000
after i improved my vocabularu to near 10000 , then i can take more attention to 10000-20000

the vocabulary list can refer COCA, SAT GRE TOFFL .......

otherwise, It is better If I can upload words lists by myself, 3 lists or 4 lists the can showed in different color. It will very help for learner.
then, Your users can all over the earth. not only English native user. I think few native user want to improve vocabulary, cause I just do not to learn to improve my Chinese character. but I must to improve my English vocabulary. my boss said "better English, more mony." that's a sad story.

Hi @shermans
I like that idea and I will try to implement it, but this changes are pretty complex and may require to change the internal model of the program. I also thought about something similar before =)

I am really glad to hear that, shermans!
I know that extension is not perfect and I will continue development once I finish another project.

Hi
I am also using your extension for learning English words, especially 10K frequent words.
It would be very helpful if the extension is able to highlight words for a given range.
For example, I want to highlight just word between 5k and 10k.
I think this can be done with a trivial change. It limits word below a given percent. It can be done by adding another limit for the upper bound.


I said the permanent solution.
But there is a temporary answer for users, too.
I downloaded the extension package and removed the words above 10k in the eng-dict.txt.
With this tiny adjustment, I control the range manually.
