Description:

  LSDictionary v3 is the largest language dictionary program to date for 
  the AMIGA computer, comprising more than 50 dictionaries, some of which
  have a database with over 100,000 entries. The total number of words
  in all the databases is over 1,500,000. 

  The largest databases are obviously those of the most popular languages,
  such as English, German, Spanish or French, but some very special
  dictionaries like Urdu-English or Suaheli-English have also been
  included.

  Every dictionary is freely expandable, and you can create new ones in a
  very simple and user-friendly manner. Individual dictionaries can be
  switched on and off, thus making the program able to filter out
  databases not currently used.

  It is possible to import words from an external database file, which is
  the quickest way to expand the dictionary.

  Searching for a word takes very little time, always less than a second.
  This can be tested with the text file "translation" function, which runs
  at a speed of 120 to 150 words per minute using a 4x CD-ROM drive - well,
  this translates to approx. 2 words a second.

  Although text file "translation" consumes a significant amount of time,
  it helps people read documentations in languages they do not speak at
  all, relieving them from the burden of writing down meanings of words
  having looked them up in various dictionaries.

  The most interesting and valuable feature of the program is its word
  stripping system. This system is able to search for the root of a specific
  word, stripping down endings, suffixes and prefixes, thus providing an
  immeasurably better chance for the program to locate the word in the database.
  (Example: 'procurement' + STRIP '+ment' = 'procure')

  To use the program you will also need to have V38+ of reqtools.library
  (created by Nico François and Magnus Holmgren) installed in your system.

Additional features:

  - 100% system friendly user interface, looking very good with an 8 color
    MagicWB palette

  - Speech support including various accents (needs version
    42.x of the translator.library created by Francesco Devitt)

  - All functions are also available from CLI/Shell

  - Full locale support - every message and text displayed is localised

Demo restrictions:

  - Only one small database (English-German: 13,489 words) is in this archive,
    but others are also available via Aminet, and the full version has
    much bigger databases (e.g. English-German: ~98,000 words)

  - A request comes up time and again...

Price (CD version only):

    59 DM
