Description

Molesworth's Marathi and English dictionary app is a fulltext searchable version of J.T. Molesworth's "A dictionary, Marathi and English." 2d ed., rev. and enl. Bombay: Printed for government at the Bombay Education Society's press, 1857. It is a product of the Digital South Asia Library program (http://dsal.uchicago.edu) at the University of Chicago (http://www.uchicago.edu).

Molesworth's Marathi and English dictionary app can be used both online and offline. The online version interacts with a database that runs remotely on a server at the University of Chicago. The offline version uses a database that is created on the Android device upon first download.

By default, the app operates in the online mode.

The default mode for this app is to search headwords. To search for a headword, touch the search box at the top (magnifying glass icon) to expose the on-screen keyboard and begin searching. Headwords can be entered in Devanagari, accented latin characters, and unaccented latin characters. For example, headword searches for अमृतवेळ, amṛtaveḷa, or amrtavela will all yield a definition about "halcyon hours."

After entering three characters in the search box, a scrollable list of search suggestions will pop up. Touch the word to search for and it will automatically fill in the search field. Or ignore suggestions and enter the search term completely. To execute the search, touch the return button on the keyboard.

By default, headword searches expand off the end of the search term. In other words, searching for "ana" will generate results for headwords that begin with "ana" and have any number of trailing characters, like "aṇakucī" (अणकुची), "aṇakhara" (अणखर), "aṇakhuraṇēṃ" (अणखुरणें), etc. To expand the front of a query, users can enter the "%" character at the beginning of search term.

For fulltext searching and advanced search options, select the "Search Options" sub-menu in the overflow menu (usually the three vertical dots icon at the top right corner of the screen).

Fulltext searching supports multiword searching. For example, the search "rice flour" returns 48 results where "rice" and "flour" can be found in the same definition. Multiword searches can be executed with the boolean operators "NOT" and "OR" as well. The search "rice OR flour" returns 1023 fulltext results; "rice NOT flour" returns 693 fulltext results.

To conduct substring matching, select an option from the "Search Options" sub-menu, enter a string in the search field, and touch return. The default for all searching is "Words beginning with." But for example, selecting "Words ending with," "Search all text," and then entering "itable" as the search string will find 391 examples of words that end in "itable."

Search results come first in a numbered list that displays the Marathi headword, the accented latin transliteration of the headword, and a chunk of the definition. To see a full definition, touch the list item.

The full result page presents definitions in a format that allows the user to select terms to copy and paste for further dictionary searching or for conducting a web search on the term (given an internet connection). In online mode, the full result page also has a page number link that the user can click to get the full page context of the definition. Link arrows at the top of the full page allow the user to click to previous and next pages in the dictionary.

To select either online or offline mode, simply check or uncheck the "Search offline" box in the overflow menu. When in online mode, the world icon at the top of the screen will appear dark; in offline mode, it will appear light.

Note that on start up, the app will test to see whether the device has an internet connection and the remote server is available. Again, the app operates in online mode by default. The user should select the appropriate mode before conducting a search.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
