Is Perapera Chinese Popup Dictionary safe?

Clean risk

Perapera Chinese Popup Dictionary reads hovered Chinese text on webpages for local dictionary lookup.

When enabled, the extension runs on all webpages and checks text under the mouse pointer so it can show Chinese pronunciation and definitions. It sends up to 13 characters from the hovered page text to its background script, which looks the text up in dictionary files bundled with the extension.
