  Build your vocabulary seamlessly without breaking your focus.
  
  Vocab-Bucket is a lightweight, distraction-free Chrome extension designed for readers, students, and professionals who want to learn new words without interrupting their workflow.
  
  Instead of opening a new tab to search for a definition, simply highlight any word on the page and press Alt + Shift + S. Vocab-Bucket instantly fetches the accurate definition and securely saves it directly to your browser's local storage for future review.
  
  Key Features:
  
  Lightning-Fast Lookups: Highlight any text and use the custom keyboard shortcut (Alt + Shift + S) to view definitions in milliseconds.
  
  Powered by Merriam-Webster: Get highly accurate, comprehensive definitions pulled directly from the trusted Merriam-Webster Dictionary.
  
  Smart Auto-Correction Matching: Typo? No problem. If a word is misspelled or corrected by Google, our intelligent backend infrastructure handles the fallback automatically, ensuring you always get the right definition and can prompt the targeted word directly to your list.
  
  Your Personal Dictionary: Every searched word is automatically saved to your personal "bucket," allowing you to review your growing vocabulary list at your own pace.
  
  Flexible Data Exporting: Your learning data belongs to you. Seamlessly export your entire vocabulary bucket into clean .csv, .json, or .md (Markdown) formats with a single click, making it easy to backup your data.
  
  Non-Intrusive UI: A clean, modern popup that delivers exactly the information you need without cluttering your screen.
  
  100% Private & Secure: Your saved words are stored entirely offline on your device. There is no tracking, no user accounts, and absolutely zero data collection.
