Slovary

❘sləvɐˈrʲi❘ noun
1.

A dictionary app that searches entirely on the device. No account, no sign-in, no advertising, no tracking, no analytics. After installing it needs no network connection at all.

2.

A reader for dictionaries you bring yourself: an open pack format and the widely used StarDict format, loaded from a link or a file.

From Russian словари — “dictionaries”.

What comes with the app

GCIDE — Webster’s Revised Unabridged (1913)

Included in the download. Search works the moment the app finishes installing — nothing to fetch, nothing to set up.

Bring your own dictionaries

The app reads an open pack format and StarDict. Compile a dictionary yourself, host it anywhere, and load it into the app from a link or a file. Optional vector packs add meaning-based search to any dictionary you install.

We publish the specification and a reference converter so that anyone can build a compatible pack. We do not host, distribute or curate other people’s dictionary content — the dictionaries offered here are ours to give: public domain or free-licensed, with the licence stated for each.
