What is Sheels Hindi to English Dictionary
The Sheel's Hindi to English Dictionary is a simple but rich program that contains over 50,000 words and definitions. It comes loaded with features that are hard to find in similar programs, and users can have full access to the software for free. It runs perfectly on Windows 7, and I didn't experience any errors or problems when using the software.
The interface is designed to be simple. You can access the features of the dictionary by using the menu bar or pressing the relevant icons that are located on the main screen. The program lacks a certain visual appeal, but its functionality is what sets it apart from other utilities. You can switch from English to Hindi with a single click of the mouse, add and edit words, and search for a word by text or by number.
Definitions are quite good, and you can also follow words and learn their synonyms as well. The developer also includes a lot of documentation and provides a thorough explanation of how to use the software. The only problem is that I had to use Google to find the developer's blog because the contact information within the program is not up to date.
I like the simplicity of this program, and I can have it running in the background, adjust the size of the display, and copy and paste words without any problems. It is a great companion for my translation work, and it is much faster, accurate and manageable than Google Translate or other programs that I have tried in the past.
The fact that I can add and edit words is another great feature that I find beneficial. The process is fairly simple, and I don't need to go through a lot of steps to make modifications. This program is definitely designed with the end-user in mind, and I would recommend it for anyone who needs a English to Hindi dictionary on their computer.
