If we ever want to improve our situation with dictionaries, it would be good to know:

  • How many different dictionary formats there are
  • Which ones different major projects use
  • What dictionaries exist in each
  • Who knows about their copyright status


Afrikaans

Afrikaans dictionaries are built for MySpell and aspell by translate.org.za. Releases available at SourceForge. They are released under LGPL. --Friedelwolff 07:57, 9 Feb 2006 (PST)

Catalan

Catalan dictionaries are available in MySpell and Aspell formats under a GPL License at http://www.jmoratinos.com Toniher


Czech

The only open Czech dictionary I know is [Ispell] that was coverted by OOo guys to [MySpell]. Both dictionaries are under GPL/LGPL. However the original Ispell is kind of abandoned and its author doesn't communicate at all. Therefore, our efforts with relicencing failed. --User:Pawell

Hebrew

OpenOffice.org has a localized version in hebrew, that uses the Hspell format, which is similar to MySpell. they converted it to MySpell for use with mozilla, and it's available here. the MySpell format is GPL, and i think Hspell too. Tsahi

Irish

The free Irish dictionary is available in aspell/ispell/myspell formats, licensed under the GPL. See http://borel.slu.edu/ispell/ --Kscanne

Zulu

Provisional Zulu dictionaries are built for MySpell and aspell by translate.org.za. Releases available at SourceForge. They are released under LGPL. --Friedelwolff 07:57, 9 Feb 2006 (PST)
