Moji is a free, open source, cross-platform Japanese and Chinese dictionary for Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird and SeaMonkey written by Erwan Loisant and Gerald Vogt. Moji itself is a 74.8 KB extension that makes it possible to search much bigger free dictionary databases. Moji was designed as a tool to help foreigners who are learning Japanese read Web pages, and it therefore allows search of hiragana, katakana and kanji terms, but not of rōmaji. Its most recent version is 0.9.3 released on March 7, 2008. The program is compatible with Apple Inc. Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows and Linux. On June 6, 2008 developers published updates versions of the extension and the dictionaries for secure updates in Firefox 3.0.

Available Dictionaries

Because it has the greatest number of entries, installation of the English dictionaries is recommended to all users.

* English Kanji dictionary

* Simplified Chinese - English dictionary (based on Paul Denisowski's CEDICT)
* Chinese - English word dictionary (based on Paul Denisowski's CEDICT)

Installation

Automatic installation of the extension is possible online using Firefox's or Thunderbird's "Add-ons" tool or Moji's own automatic tool. Using Moji requires the installation of the Moji extension itself and of at least two dictionaries (a word dictionary and a kanji dictionary).
Automatic installation requires Javascript, but all necessary files can be downloaded and installed manually.

Use

Moji in Firefox opens in a sidebar. The sidebar can be opened either using the browser's main menu. Words can then be selected in the Web page and looked up either dropping them directly onto Moji's search box. It is also possible to use a drop-down menu that appears right-clicking on a word or a user-configurable keyboard shortcut. The program has numerous user-configurable options that can be set through Firefox.
