LingoPad is a compact yet powerful English-German offline dictionary for Windows. It ships with 80,000+ headwords and 300,000 explanations, many of them complete with phonetic guides and cross-references. A smart clipboard-monitor automatically looks up any word you copy, while customisable hot-keys let you call the dictionary from inside any application. Additional language packs (Spanish, French, Japanese, Chinese, Turkish, Norwegian, etc.) can be downloaded, though definitions remain German-only.
