Diary offers a wide range of dictionary support in many languages, ranging from American English to British English, or French to Afrikaans etc. If you are used to writing diary in a language other than English, chances are that you may find a suitable dictionary to complement the default set of dictionaries that come with the diary software. In addition to that, you may also find some Special Dictionary below, such as a technical dictionary for more specific usages.
