DictionaryforMIDs - Thai LEXiTRON dictionary
DictionaryforMIDs version: 3.4.0
Dictionary edition: 2.1 (24Oct04)
Entries: Thai -> English 40,853
English -> Thai 83,231
1. Dictionary
This product is created by the adaptation of LEXiTRON™ developed by NECTEC (http://www.nectec.or.th).
The Thai to English dictionary has 40,853 entries. The English to Thai dictionary has 83,231 entries. The entry count is not completely accurate since the dictionary has separate entries for multiple definitions of a word. For example, if there is a noun and verb definition for the same word, then the definitions will be given in separate entries. The same is true if there are 2 noun definitions for the same word.
This dictionary contains the following elements:
Grammatical Tag | Maroon |
Definition | Black |
Synonym | Purple |
Antonym | Fuchsia |
L2 Definition | Green |
Example Sentence | Blue |
2. Fonts
If you do not have Thai fonts on your phone, then you may use the bitmap fonts supplied with the dictionary package. Go to the Menu and select Settings -> Use Bitmap Font
The bitmap fonts were generated by the "BitmapFontGenerator" available from DictionaryforMIDs. The bitmap fonts were taken from the "Arial
Unicode MS" font. The "Font Properties Extension" tool available from Microsoft shows
this font has "editable embedding allowed":
"Fonts may be embedded in documents, but must only be installed temporarily on
the remote system"
3. Request for Help
This release of the dictionary does not contain a Thai IME (Input Method Editor). An IME allows you to type in Thai. Work is underway to add a Thai IME to DictionaryforMIDs. So for this release, unless you add a 3rd party Thai IME program, you will only be able to search from English to Thai. You will not be able to search from Thai to English.
We could use some help with this IME. Damien Hanssens was kind enough to submit the cell phone input for Thai phones:

If you know the Java programming language and can add a Thai input system, then please contact one of the developers.
The best place to start looking is at the "OwnTextField" Java code. It is available from the DictionaryforMIDs forum. The "OwnTextField" Java code can be adapted to be used as an IME.
