The best English dictionary in Linux-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information. For more information, see the following. StarDict is the best English dictionary for use in Linux.
But how can I add a dictionary to StarDict? I use StarDict for almost 3 ~ I have tried many word libraries in the past four years. The word libraries that have been used and kept up to the present are only the traditional American Dictionary [Dual Solution] and the Oxford dictionary, good dictionaries should not be too many. These two books are usually enough.
Recently, I had to switch to Windows XP frequently to take care of my habits and give up the XX dashboard. A win32 version of StarDict is also installed. Suddenly I found that the win32 version integrated a WordNet dictionary, which was used directly to make me shout "Awesome! "In the past, StarDict 3.01 has integrated the wordnet plug-in to display words, parts of speech, phrases, and associated words as an interactive" word network ", which I only know today!
This wordnet header is not small
WordNet: a cognitive linguistic-based English dictionary jointly designed by a psychologist at Princeton University, linguistics and computer engineers. It is not simply to arrange words in alphabetical order, but also to form a "word network" based on the meaning of words ".
The word network can even display the "concept distance" between words. When you keep going along the network path, you will feel that learning is far from what other dictionaries can comprehend.
I think of my friend (former Boss) Owen once told me: "When you want to learn a foreign language, you cannot learn it in your own mother tongue, instead, we should use this language to learn ". There are not many Chinese people who are fluent in English Writing and oral English, but a foreigner who is fluent in Chinese writing and oral English is truly admirable. Owen has done it in a year. In this way, I have to believe that a good way to learn a foreign language is to use this language to learn it. Now we have wordnet, a superb dictionary for help.
If you are interested, you can download the wordnet 3.0 dictionary here.
