Galnet Dictionary vs OSS-Dict
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Galnet Dictionary
The Galnet Dictionary is a Wordnet-based multilingual dictionary with translations and synonyms for 10 languages: Galician, Portuguese, Catalan, Basque, Spanish, English, German, Latin, Italian and Chinese (both Traditional and Simplified Chinese). This multilingual dictionary contains the Galnet lexical database (http://sli.uvigo.gal/galnet/) which is being developed by the Computational Linguistics Group at the University of Vigo (http://sli.uvigo.gal) and is available from 2011. The goal of the Galnet development is integrating the Galician language into the interlingual lexical-semantic network of WordNet (https://wordnet.princeton.edu), according the EuroWordNet model. Galnet is part of the Multilingual Central Repository (http://adimen.si.ehu.es/web/MCR) and the Open Multilingual Wordnet (http://compling.hss.ntu.edu.sg/iliomw/omw). Galnet contents can be searched with several web applications and can also be downloaded in RDF and LMF formats with a free license (http://sli.uvigo.gal/download/SLI_Galnet/).

However, this is NOT for accessing the internet. The app is an offline dictionary that works without an internet connection. The INTERNET permission is required because the app uses a local embedded web server (localhost/socket communication) to display dictionary content. On Android, socket communication requires the INTERNET permission even when only communicating locally. Please do not disable network access for this app in your device settings, as this will prevent the app from working correctly.
