Prioritize primary meaning

[Jmaher16]

Would it be possible to have it prioritize using the primary meaning over an alternative. An example of this is for "friend" it currently shows "味方” instead of "友達”

Definitely possible.
The extension would need another Dictionary created containing these items (that the community would have to agree on), and then override the main dictionary afterwards.

For now, you could do something like the below:

not sure if it is something you can pull through the API, but WK identifies Primary/Alternative on their vocab pages.

Its possible but it would require quite a bit of rewriting of how the replacement logic interacts with the vocab. Currently its a simple dictionary (which already shows issues on synonyms like, 私, 僕 and 我). To fix it the dictionary would likely need to be replaced with a structure similar to "key: { primary: [] , secondary: [] }", possibly with some options to randomize primaries / secondaries or both. Due to this being a pretty fundamental structure change, it will also require some tweaking of the custom vocab imports via. google sheets and the options page. (this would also quite certainly have a pretty negative impact on performance)
