Everything about The Edict totally explained
The
EDICT project was started by
Jim Breen in
1991 with the aim to provide a complete
Japanese to
English dictionary. Since that time it has been updated and expanded by many contributors. EDICT is simply a text file; other programs are needed to search and display it. Jim Breen's own on-line dictionary
WWWJDIC is a convenient way of accessing the wealth of information contained in EDICT.
This project is considered a standard Japanese-English reference on the
Internet, and is used by the
Unihan Database and several other Japanese-English projects.
JMdict is an expanded file, containing
French,
German,
Russian, etc.
translation, and using
XML with the
UTF-8 encoding.
EDICT also inspired the
CEDICT Chinese dictionary project of Paul Denisowski, started in
1997.
The EDICT file currently has over 128,000 entries.
