A much-improved version of popular dictionary application, Ultralingua 7, is available now.

The new version is faster than before, optimised for use with Leopard. It offers a much-improved user interface designed to make the application easier to use, while also including multiple tools for dictionary searches and language learning.

For users, custom-designed inline inspectors allow users to conjugate words and add entries with a single click. Seamlessly integrated dictionary "stemming" means that users don't need to worry about conjugations, plurals, or other inflected forms when searching for definitions and translations: Ultralingua finds the appropriate form automatically.

For language learning, Ultralingua 7 offers a powerful new integrated flashcards feature (using Apple's Core Animation technology), making study both fun and efficient. Other language tools include a verb conjugator, a number-to-text converter, extensive grammar references, and tight internet integration for language forums and usage examples.

Finally, Ultralingua integrates with the rest of Mac OS X through a Dashboard widget and a system-wide hotkey that defines and translates words in any application in a compact inline interface.

Ultralingua 7 is available for many languages, including English definitions and synonyms, as well as bilingual dictionaries for Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and more. Individual dictionaries are priced at $34.95; users may load multiple dictionaries in a single interface.

Ultralingua 7 is currently available for Mac OS X; it will be released for Windows and other platforms soon.
