Bookmarklets on the run

Yes, I study English as a foreign Language and I find it terribly painful and burdensome to look all the fancy words up in dictionary for pronunciation. So I used the bookmarklet technology to facilitate the process. Here they are:

Bookmarklet for pronunciation

Bookmarklet for English pronunciation with IPA symbols
Note: You must have IPA fonts installed. IPA fonts are not displayed correctly in Opera browser.

Bookmarklet for pronunciation with AHD symbols

And some additional, just in case someone find it useful:

Bookmarklet for WordNet 2.0 definition

Bookmarklet for synonyms at thesaurus.reference.com.

MW synonyms: Bookmarklet for M-W synonyms

Dome of them might not work with Internet Explorer. If you are using IE, please tweak the bookmarklets to your browser.
Hope this might help somebody.
