Basic but works...nice to have audio pronunciation. Looks like it keeps some sort of history...will be nicer if it can store the pronunciation as well

BTW great effort considering your first app!

i will publish the code and once the parsing is complete. currently it lacks few things. Like if you will search harbour, it will not show anything. Also it should show diagram or image if available. Like in case of searching heart
I also intend to add thesaurus it in.

http://wiki.maemo.org/QML ?

and maybe other wiki's not generally about qml. But it can be outdated.
