GB dictionary?

tony · 12. Feb 2014, 08:59 PM

I am looking for a GB dictionary (free of course). I have just downloaded Kingsoft office and of course the main dictionary is USA. I had OpenOffice but it wouldn't allow me to keep the GB dictionary as standard. I had gone onto the forum and they told me I had to ensure every doc was allocated to GB. Which is a pain, so I deleted it. Now I am after a .dic file for Kingsoft. Anyone know of a good site that would be of help here?

Tony, I can't swear this will work but check this Kingsoft forum post...

The LibreOffice dictionary files are here. Scroll down and locate the 2nd green download arrow - that's the British one.

Just for curiosity I downloaded and extracted the .oxt file and it does have .dic and .aff files. I think you could give it a shot.
