      HELP: more dictionaries are needed!

      Dictionariez is a universal tool to learn any languages. As our community is growing, more and more dictionaries are needed in our trove, or maybe not just dictionaries, any site you think is useful could be added here. Such as Wikipedia or Bing image search. Please help me add more.

      How to add more dictionaries?

      Two ways to add a website:

      First, for development and testing, try by code.
      Second, add a topic here on pnlpal, so that it will benefit others like you.

      By code

      At the settings page, open chrome's devtool, use function like this:

      addExtraDict( { dictName: 'Google Search', windowUrl: 'https://www.google.com/search?q=<word>', css: '#searchform,#top_nav {display: none;}' } )

      The css code is optional to make the target website more adapted to this app.

      Then the new dictionary "Google Search" will appear as the last item of the dictionaries list.
      Click it to open and try.

      By pnlpal

      This is the way.
      Add a topic in Dictionariez Trove, put the json code in the topic content, and use one or more tags to classify the dictionary.

      Welcome to pnlpal!

      This is a community for Programming N' Language pals to discuss and share information and knowledge about programming and languages, not just programming languages. In this topic, I will talk about why I built this website, what is my intention and a few rules of posting.

      But first of all, I ask you to help me revise my writings. As an English learner, who has never been exposed to the bigger world before, I am sure I have made a lot of mistakes of using improper words, or grammar errors in the sentences, or violating of political correctness in the meaning. Normally I'll read my writing many times and edit it constantly. But my English is far from good. Actually it's terrible, I know it since I have been learning English for more than 15 years from the first lesson in middle school, I am still struggling on it and progressing at a snail's pace. For the reason I think it's because I never used it. I never kept reading in English except for some tech docs, I never listened to English audios because I don't have to, and I never had chance to speak to others in English except for saying hello or asking for directions, until now. I want to change. I want to start to use English to understand the world and to express my thought. Of course writing is one of my major methods. So I urge you to help me refine my articles. I will value your advice and appreciate your help.

      About me

      I am living in Wuhan, yes, the first epicenter of Covid-19 and a city of thousands of lakes.

      Well that's not really the true face of Wuhan, it's actually a city of heavy industries.
      I started to advance my English skill because I realized that the world is so complicated and I am so narrow-minded. English is an open window to the world.
      I mainly read and write about China. I consider myself as a China Watcher (But I must confess I have no idea of what this term means, to me it just means watching Chinese news in English).

      As you can see, I am also a programmer, the author of Dictionariez and Captionz, and a few other insignificant open-source projects. I build and market apps by myself.

      Dictonariez: not just a dictionary app Captionz: learn on YouTube with fun

      So this site is made as Dictionariez's backend service, a space to watch YouTube videos with more fun, and a show place of different kinds of learning experience and interesting ideas. I urge you to do the same with me.

      I will share what I have learned everyday here. I will write TLNR tech articles in my blog as a record of the developing of projects. I will text or talk with you guys directly in our Discord & Telegram group. I will try to build up this community. Most importantly I will develop my projects continually, to make it better and help others like me.

      During the years of programming, I have learned that the best way of learning a skill is creating things with your learning subject, in a practical way like doing an open-source project if you are learning programming. Care about the things that really matter. Read about it, listen to it, and write what's your thought about it, by using your new skill.
      So to learn a new language I must find a way how to practically use it. I think reading news, writing blogs and speaking with you guys is a good idea. How do you think? are you going to share your thought with us? are you interested in joining our Discord & Telegram channel to speak with us? are you gonna join our community to build with us and grow with us?

      Categories

      There are 5 categories.

      Sharing is for the share of reading and writings. Actually anything could be here. For example topics like below are recommended. The list will get longer. (Remember sharing is not just posting a link, but also a few thoughts in it.)

      News stories you have read. Individual's blog articles about programming or languages. New project or product article related to our community, open-source project is better. I would prefer you are the developer of it. If you are only a marketer, the article must be really good and helpful to others. YouTube, Twitter or other social media content is permitted here, as long as it's genuine and helpful.

      Questions is about programming or languages, you could ask for help.

      Feedback is about the issues of Dictionariez, Captionz or this website. It could be a bug report, feature request or critical review.

      Dictionariez Trove is a place to enhance your Dictionariez, see HELP: more dictionaries are needed!

      Captionz Trove is an interesting place full of best YouTube resources. See: Welcome to captionz trove.

      Feedback and Thanks!

      Hey River,

      Thanks so much for your work on this project, I have loved using it so far. I've contributed some dictionaries and bought you a coffee too

      A quick question, is it possible to download the word history with the sentence column? Right now it just downloads with things like the url source in the csv while, which isn't that helpful.

      Also, is it be possible to modify what is added to the input fields in the anki 'add' window? The extra formatting that is added automatically is making it difficult to make my new cards match my normal formatting.

      Incomplete translation

      Hi River,

      It seems that sometimes the english translation of certain swedish words are not shown. Instead only forms of words are available. Could you please fix it, thank you!
