German - French Freedict dictionary for StarDict 2: stardict-freedict-deu-ita-2.4.2-alt116.noarch.rpm: German - Italian Freedict dictionary for StarDict 2: stardict-freedict-deu-por-2.4.2-alt116.noarch.rpm: German - Portugese Freedict dictionary for StarDict 2: stardict-freedict-eng-afr-2.4.2-alt116.noarch.rpm. StarDict 3.0.6.2: StarDict is a Cross-Platform and international dictionary written in Gtk. It has powerful features such as 'Glob-style pattern matching', 'Scan selection word,' 'Fuzzy query,' etc.
Imagine that you want to have fast, offline access to a dictionary. Tomultiple dictionaries, glossaries, and encyclopedias. Perhaps you wantto store this data in a way that can be used across multiple systems,without relying on a local dictionary server (like dictd or dicod).Perhaps you would like the option of using either a simple, scriptablecommand to query those dictionaries, or a full GUI.
You need StarDict. The primary project is atstardict-4.sourceforge.net.
Dictionary storage
User dictionaries are stored in ~/.stardict/dic; system dictionariesin /usr/share/stardict/dic.
As an example, the following files exist in~/.stardict/dic/stardict-wordnet-3.0.0/:
- wordnet.idx
- wordnet.syn
- wordnet.dict.dz
- wordnet.ifo
Dictionaries are gzip compressed (the dz file).
Client software
For command line queries I recommend sdcv, which is available in thesdcv package in Debian. Foryour convenience, set up the following in a script or shell alias.
GUI: GoldenDict

Wikipedia and Wiktionary
Two obvious sources for dictionaries are Wikipedia and Wiktionary.
- Babylon Software provides a Wikipedia glossarywhich seems to be an abbreviated Wikipedia.
- There are some Wiktionary dictionaries in Stardict format availablefrom dictinfo.com. These are gettingold though; as of this writing most of the files there are from theyear 2018.
