GoldenDict is a feature-rich desktop dictionary lookup program that supports many dictionary formats (StarDict, Babylon, Lingvo DSL, Dictd, MDict, Zim) as well as online sources like Wikipedia and arbitrary websites. It renders articles with full formatting and images, offers morphology-aware fuzzy lookup, scan popups, and audio pronunciations.
Use cases
- look up words in offline StarDict dictionaries
- translate words without typing accents or correct case
- pop up a translation when selecting a word in another app
- use Wikipedia or any website as a dictionary
- listen to word pronunciations from audio archives or Forvo
- manage multiple dictionary formats in one program
When to choose
- you need a free, offline-capable dictionary reader for many formats on Windows, Linux, or macOS
- you want accurate article rendering with images, formatting, and links
- you need morphology, spelling suggestions, and diacritic-insensitive lookup
When to avoid
- you only need a simple command-line word lookup
- you want a mobile or web-based dictionary app
- you need machine translation rather than dictionary definitions
