Babylon Pro 5.0.4 r14

Though it might not provide every tool a professional translator or writer needs, Babylon-Pro amounts to a decent multilingual, digital dictionary. Covering most major languages and offering a huge number of glossaries, the program discreetly runs in the background until you activate via mouse movements or keystrokes. Even though the program lists several possible translation options, we wished it gave more contextual clues as to how to use each word. We did like Babylon-Pro's Cross Translation feature, which displays English variants and their corresponding translations in other languages. Another point in this program's favor is that you can look up words while using different applications, such as a Web browser, an Office document, or a help file. Also, you can hear proper pronunciation, though you'll need to install a separate plug-in. You can download more dictionaries from the developer's site or even build your own glossaries containing links and embedded images. All things considered, Babylon-Pro will do for quick lookups, but it will probably prove insufficient for language learning or for serious translation.
