Zigiri Dictionary

Learning a new language supposes continuous effort, and having close at hand all the resources needed in order to explore new horizons is of critical importance.

If you are looking for a tool centered around speed and ease of use, then Zigiri Dictionary could be of interest to you. The application works as a Sinhala to English and English to Sinhala dictionary any user should figure out in a matter of seconds.

Assuming you have already installed the program on your system, which, it must be said, is a process that should be undemanding, a simplistic user interface meets you.

There is one single window you need to interact with, at the top of which a search box is integrated so that you can easily type the word you are interested in or paste it from the clipboard.

As said, the program is capable of translating words from both Sinhala and English and can automatically detect the language you opt for. Aside from that, you may want to know that very few configurations are needed when using the program, and they are meant to increase your productivity.

An Auto Grab mode, for instance, can be checked in order to enable the program to read clipboard text automatically. Once it does that, the word is translated in the “Meaning” section, which you can scroll so that you explore all the results.

It is also important to point out that, if that caters to your needs, showing the meaning as a sytray notification is possible, even though you cannot specify for how long it is visible, and copying results is quite a tricky thing to do.

Nevertheless, Zigiri Dictionary is clearly aimed at novices who need a rich dictionary they could turn to in order to translate text from Sinhala to English and vice versa. Its database comprises approximatively 70,000 words, the app is overall responsive and proposes an intuitive workspace, but don’t get your hopes too high since it does not pack an impressive set of features.
