JDict - Japanese Dictionary 1.0
Free Version
Publisher Description
JDict is an offline japanese dictionary which includes vocabulary, kanji, sentences and more.
It is largely inspired by well-known "Imi wa?" dictionary for iOS platform both functionally and visually.
Current features:
- works offline
- shows kana/romaji as you type
- supports wildcards in vocabulary
- recent words, examples and kanji
- romaji mode in search
- kanji search is divided by ON/KUN readings, Nanori and meaning results
- very fast example search
- extract words from sentences feature
- kanji stroke order animations
- furigana is matched everywhere with my own algorithm (still can have some bugs though)
- in component view you can see all kanji with given component ordered by JLPT level and word commonness
- in kanji view you can see all compounds with given kanji ordered like above
- search kanji by components (design inspired by "Japanese" dictionary)
- browse kanji by JLPT and School Grades
- notes
- lists (works like favourites but with folders/subfolders)
- vocabulary search recognises some basic grammar when typing
- in word detail view examples are categorized by word meaning if such a connection exists
As you can see features are mostly basic for now.
Database file is quite big (~230MB). The reason for that is that it contains a lot of example sentences data and needs a lot of indexes to run smooth.
My plans:
- make application more user friendly (list search)
- learn vocabulary feature (using lists)
- exporting lists to Anki
- external links in vocabulary
- kanji handwriting recognition
- shiritori game
- improve extract words algorithm (I have some ideas using statistical approach to make it run faster)
