Shabdanjali the Hindi Dictionary
I saw the Shabadanjali Dictionary while working with Shashi Palekar ji on her Paper on MultiLigual Dictionaries.But it was ISCII based and requires a plugin to display the characters which is never a good idea. Unicode rocks and should be a standard application.
While surfing i found shabdkosh.com and the Unicode version of shabdanjali for windows, which can be easily implemented with Linux.
For Installing the dictionary just Use
#sudo apt-get install stardict
and extract the files in /usr/share/stardict/dic.
IISC based ? Or do you mean ISCII ?
Oops a big typo, i mean ISCII only . Thanks 4 pointing out…
majain owns stardict packaging responsibility for FC
…& that reminds me, I still have to update it to the latest upstream release

Ohh cool stardict is a wonderful tool and it`s good u r contributing .
Here`s one feature request to maintainer ;), Can we have shabdanjali dictionary embedded with it. at 1.1 mb can fedora bear the cost ?,
it would be really interseting..
Hi Rocky,
I just repackage the product for fedora/rhel. If you need to request a new feature, you need to request it on stardict-devel mailing list. I’m sure, the’ll be happy to hear from you
