[zhang yuqi]

Dear list members,
 
     Some days ago I posted a query about English dictionary. Thank you very much for the answers. There is the summary (total  5 )

The summary is :
1      You might try yourdictionary.com which includes lots of         links to dictionaries of many languages. 
                                                    Josephine Lo
2     WordNet (http://www.cogsci.princeton.edu/~wn/) 
                                Rada Mihalcea and MAltesh Badiger
3     You could try CUV2 which is a 'computer-usable' version of the Oxford Advanced Learners' Dictionary and available for free download from the  Oxford Text Archive
http://www.ota.ahds.ac.uk/ It contains 70,000+ entries (in text format) including inflected forms etc. and provides a fairly comprehensive coverage. There's also a Prolog-readable version on my web site at
http://www.dcs.kcl.ac.uk/pg/purver/software.html
                                                 Jenny and Matthew Purver  
4    Cambridge can provide the Cambridge International Dictionary of English or 
the English Pronouncing Dictionary, but these only cover the most frequent 
50,000-80,000 words, not all English words. See 
http://uk.cambridge.org/elt/reference/data.htm for some more information.
