Dictus: a custom dictionary

Overview

Dictus is a custom dictionary for language learners. With this app, you can record meanings and pronunciations of headwords in structured form.

Unlike with spreadsheets, you can easily record synonyms—you can link many headwords to many meanings, and one headword to many pronunciations.

Dictus is based on Ben Awad's LiReddit project. (See his fullstack tutorial here.)

Note: a live website is coming soon!

Features

Note: a major update is coming! In the upcoming update, Dictus will adopt Wiktionary structure: many new record fields, headword forms, translations, categories, and much more!

Current features of Dictus:

  • Add custom meanings and pronunciations
    create1
  • Add many meanings or pronunciations at once (from one field)
    create2
  • Add image links to meanings
    readmany
  • Add playable audio links to pronunciations
  • Look up and add meanings and pronunciations from Wiktionary (using the data from [Kaikki.org](https://kaikki.org), generated with Tatu Ylonen's [wiktextract](https://github.com/tatuylonen/wiktextract)) (in development)
    wiktionary_meanings
  • Add audio links from Wiktionary
    wiktionary_pronunciations
  • Link headwords to meanings (many to many) and pronunciations (one to many)

and more!

Note: as of now, you need to disable cross-origin restrictions to fetch Wiktionary data (from Kaikki.org).
