Dictionaries

Although application allows to get words from everywhere including web and different kinds of plain files it do not have abilities to recognize correct word form or sentence range. Sometimes translation services are good for particular area or language pair but really weak for another one.

Here you will find the set of links for collections of supported dictionaries as well as dictionaries created by users of Lingo Quiz. If you think that your own dictionary has to be here, just export it and sent to me to publish it.
