StarDict

The following introduction comes from the Internet:

StarDict was originally a well-known electronic dictionary on the Linux platform.

It is not only famous because it is an open-source product, but more importantly, it has a huge lexicon as support.

These dictionaries are parsed from some well-known dictionaries, and with the support of multiple language dictionaries, StarDict's lexicon has already exceeded hundreds.

Among these dictionaries, there are also all the lexicons from the familiar Jinshan Dictionary, the super large lexicon from Langdao Dictionary, the LazyMan Dictionary, and even Wikipedia (so you don't have to think of a bunch of ways to bypass the GFW just to look up an entry).

Now StarDict has launched an online dictionary, inheriting all the features of the original software, including the dictionaries.

The main interface is Google-style, but the Ajax-based word lookup interface is very powerful, almost identical to the software.

It also saves your hard drive space and supports directly showing the definition when you select a word. Highly recommended!
