Bangla Dictionary Offline is a free dictionary and thesaurus for both the Bangla and English languages. This app from INNOVATIVE-SOFTWARE is a great companion for people who are traveling to the Bengal region of South Asia or to native speakers of the Bengali language learning English. It is usable offline.

While there are other educational materials for Bangla such as English to Bangla Translation and English Bangla Dictionary, Bangla Dictionary Offline works with other apps and can be used even without data or internet connection–making sure that you get the language support anytime, anywhere.

Integrated with other apps

One feature that sets Bangla Dictionary Offline is its integration with other apps. You can search for both English and Bangla words directly from your browser or any other app and just use the “Sharing” option, where the dictionary will appear as an added option. Clicking the option will open the app and show you the meaning of the shared word. 

To make learning fun, the app also offers a multiple choice question quiz that asks you a certain word in English or in Bangla. Not only does the app tell you the meaning of the word but also its opposite (antonym) and a sample sentence where the word is used. Also, the app has an auto suggestion feature, so you won’t have to type every word in full.

The only problem with this app is that in order to use it, you have to grant the app the necessary permissions, which include staying over other apps. Once you open the app, a small icon for the dictionary hovers over your screen, which blocks other content and impedes your use of the device–making it a nuisance to those who use other full-screen apps.

Your bridge to the Bangla language

With its integration with other apps, ease of use, and its fun feature with the multiple choice quiz, Bangla Dictionary Offline is a great tool to have for people who wish to learn either the Bangla or the English language. Aside from serving the practicality of a dictionary and a thesaurus, it also keeps its services even without an internet connection.
