Can I configure FF to allow macOS's Spotlight Suggestions access when right-clicking?

I've been trusting on macOS's Spotlight Suggestions for checking word meaning and translations, but since switching to Firefox I can't see this option. On Chrome or Safari, this feature appears when right-clicking, is there a way of configuring Firefox to do the same?

Hi leeopereira

  1. What OS are you on? Are you on 10.13? I'm on 10.11 and with safari I only see Look up meaning and not translation.
  2. Sounds like a "missing feature" bug. Could you please let me know the exact steps you followed? And then I will find a bug for you or file one.

Cheers!

It's 10.13 indeed. I activated a Portuguese-English dictionary on macOS's Dictionary so that I could have translation when right-clicking. There's a bunch of dictionary options there, plus Wikipedia, and you can activate whatever you want.

Thanks!
