Dictionary .NET

dictionary and translation tool

Our Rating: (Very Good)

Dictionary .NET is a multilingual dictionary and translation tool that can translate between 52 different languages. I makes use of several online services including Google Dictionary, Translate, Search, Suggest and Wikipedia. If the input and output languages are the same (default), the program will work in dictionary mode and provide detailed information with references and examples, sometimes even images and audio samples. If a secondary language is selected, the program will focus on translation features which include related phrases, as well as web definitions. Dictionary .NET can also be used to quickly look up or translated words or paragraphs on a website (or any other document) by selecting the text and pressing a keyboard shortcut. Standalone software, no installation required.
