I'm sorry but this is garbage.

I see posts here from five years ago asking about this, and fixing this issue is a non-trivial process particularly for those not computer literate enough. It should literally just work out of the box with zero issues like EVERY OTHER BROWSER.

Crap like this is why I dumped this browser years ago, I guess I was right to do so.

IT'S BEEN YEARS.

I'm moving on to another browser.

I was kind of looking for something that I could replicate here and hopefully find a solution for you or at least understand the issue better, but thank you for your feedback.

Make sure you have a Dictionary installed and selected as only a few language locales comes with a dictionary due to licensing reasons.

1. There is no option to install a dictionary anywhere. Perhaps this is because I am on macOS?

2. This should not be necessary. EVERY other browser I have ever used does not have this weird requirement.

It's been years. I have today moved to Opera for my secondary browser.
