Description
Now two ways to use!
1. Send/share the selected word(s) to Send To Dictionary.
2. (NEW) Clipboard text lookup - copy text from anywhere and select Send To Dictionary from the Notification Bar. Meaning it can now work with apps like iSilo and other apps that don't have send/share function!
A dictionary helper app that sends/share any word to ColorDict or GoldenDict for instant lookup.
Useful when reading in an app that does not support dictionary lookup directly for example, a web browser.
Since this app depends on ColorDict or GoldenDict (offline/online dictionary tools), Internet connection is not required and is very customizable.
REQUIRES and currently supports: ColorDict and GoldenDict
Thanks to Oldřich for letting me know this app works with GoldenDict too.
PERMISSION REQUIRED: Run at Startup - To be able to automatically run on boot when clipboard lookup is enabled.
App permissions
Send To Dictionary 1.1.2 APK requires following permissions:
Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting.

5 ★ Tiny thing make big change. I have try a lot pdf reader but no one make me satisfied. But with this brilliant idea, i can choose any pdf reader i want but don't care about dict
3 ★ 1. The idea is good, but your apps need improvement. We only get translation when copying the word then touch the apps, which is time-consuming. 2. You say that you don't want the function of Copying to annoy the user. But I think the apps is annoying me. I can not turn it off with 1 drag on the tool bar. I have to go the Setting to switch it off. It means that we use your apps when we need it. And if necessary, we just drag it out (turn off). Thank you! I'm wating for your answer.
5 ★ I think you need make this app popup is transparent! Auto open keyboard when open popup. It is usefull for some app can't copy word or share word! We still see the work don't need to remember word.
2 ★ Now it just says error loading dictionaries
5 ★ It is a very good idea. It worked with Bluedict as well. Why don't you think about the function by context menu or a button in the top bar next to copy, paste and share button that allow user get the meaning quicker
4 ★ I love this app but please add features like that of clip to dictionary(if word is selected in PDF or browser or anywhere it'll give option to search meaning), also feature to search from more installed dictionaries like that of quick search widget, last but not least, add floating window feature like icon floating on the screen.
4 ★ Even if "share" option is not available, easy to find word meaning
5 ★ 5-Stars for excellent execution. Once you have ColorDict and dictionary files installed, it makes it easy to search for a term: anytime & offline. A must have!
5 ★ Thanks! But can you add some features like triggering it by swipe-up guesture ?
3 ★ I want this app to use Word Web dictionary. Which is now the problem.
5 ★ Unobtrusive, great selection of dictionaries (including pronunciation) and simple but effective idea. Congrats dev.
5 ★ must have. it would be better if we can configure it tk send to an app other than color dict.
5 ★ The app that I've been looking for
5 ★ Needs a minimize or float option and ability to move or resize window
5 ★ this nerds dream word app
