dictionary like in Kaku

[KonstantinDjairo]

i know that we could use mdict on android, but it does not work with phrases or anything that is not a word alone if we have something like 納期に間に合わせるため it won't work on mdict

the way kaku works with whole phrases is awesome, it allows you to click and see the meaning in dictionary, instead of a translating.

No need to apologize for your English

That would be helpful, the main focus was on translate But advanced dictionary is a good thing to have

I will try to work on it and see what will happen

My English is also bad 😅, it is just a negotiation tool.

It's a great suggestion. 👍 I also want to have the feature you mentioned.

I just moved to Japan, but I don't understand the Japanese language, so I also use this app heavily these days. It would be very helpful if I could add this feature to EverTranslator.

Let me check how Kaku works and how to implement it in this application. Thanks for the suggestion. 😆

I do have one what I noticed is the word detection is really good it can detect Japanese words as good as Kaku

The only thing Kaku can achieve is clicking inside the word

And how we could achieve that is to recheck the words but remove what's before the clicked letter

And in the settings we could choose between dictionary and web Or button to switch between them

you could add jmdict, so it would be a built-in dictionary, like in kaku, this is what make kaku so fast to use. i noticed that they put jmdict and kanjidict2 in that location

to implement a JMDict viewer they are parsing the JMDict XML file, creating a local database to store the dictionary entries, and building the UI to display the entries. Fortunately the code is already there and kaku is also writen in kotlin.
Additionally, removing what's before the word would be very annoying, since the purpose is to look up the whole phrase, and it's not sure that the user will always know where a word ends or where it begins, that's why i like the being able to click anywhere in the phrase without "losing the phrase".

Yes, you're right I didn't mean remove same as my picture it will be the same as Kaku, where you click is where it will start to check the phrase and it, it's just to figure out how to code it

JMDict only support japanese language what do you think of instead of that

Once you click on the word it will open for example https://www.japandict.com/%E4%BB%8A%E6%97%A5%E3%81%AF?lang=eng And if you click on English word it will open https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/hello

Yes, but a lot of dictionaries uses the same format as jmdict, also, opening the browser for searching a word is rather slow than just displaying the respective dictionary entry. Pretty much any dictionary can be found in the freemdict website,not only japanese.
