About GoldenDict

GoldenDict is a desktop dictionary application that translates text from a language to another by using dictionary files publicly available on the internet. For more information, visit Wikipedia and GoldenDict Website.

  • Typing a word will translate to word in another language.
  • Double-clicking a word will translate it too.

3. On GoldenDict, click menu Edit > Dictionaries > a new dialog will open.

4. On Dictionaries dialog, open Sources > Files section.

5. Click Add… button > a file chooser dialog will open > navigate to the extracted folder > OK > Apply > OK > dictionary database successfully added. 

 

6. Optionally, disable Wikipedia so it will not act as dictionary by going to menu Edit > Dictionaries > Dictionaries > drag and drop ‘Wikipedia’ from the top to bottom position so it belongs to Inactive > Apply > OK. 

 

 (Notice English Wikipedia on the bottom belongs to Inactive dictionaries)

 

Software Use

1. Run GoldenDict.

2. Type a word in Indonesian such as “kopi”.

3. It will translate to English “coffee”. 

4. Type a word in English such as “book”.

5. It will translate to Indonesian “buku”. 

 

6. Open any selectable text in web browser, word processor, terminal etc. for example visit Wikipedia English for Coffee. 

7. Enable Scan feature on GoldenDict. 

8. Double click a word e.g. “roasting”.

9. It will translate to Indonesian “pembakaran” in a small floating window that is convenient for learners.

10. Repeat step 6-9 for the reverse i.e. translating words at Wikipedia Indonesian into English.   

 

Tips & Tricks

  • Click “Scan Popup” on GoldenDict tray to enable/disable translating by click on floating window.
  • Click “Magic Wand” button to do so, as an alternative. 
  • Disable Scan Popup whenever you do not need translation.
