Abstract: This paper presents the Tilde Dictionary Browser (TDB), an innovative dictionary browsing environment for a wide range of users: language learners, language teachers, translators, and casual users. We describe several techniques to maximise the likelihood of providing users with a useful result even when searched items do not have a direct match in the dictionary due to misspellings, inflected words, multi-word items or phrase fragments, or where there is a lack of data in the main dictionary. TDB is targeted for broad use on multiple platforms and is implemented as desktop software, and a Web and mobile application. The desktop version of TDB currently contains dictionaries for more than 20 language pairs, including the languages of the Baltic countries, and is easily extendable to other languages. Besides the data from translation dictionaries, TDB also provides information from different online resources, such as terminology dictionaries, as well as integrates the machine translation facility.
