I'd suggest starting at the beginning of this thread and reading through. This question has been covered numerous times (and in varying amounts of detail).

XDXF format does not work (as has been reported several times in this thread) - you need the stardict format dictionaries. There's some very clear instructions in the thread here which cover downloading, extracting, and installing the dictionaries.

There's an English-Hindi dictionary here (or here, or here). I can't see any urdu language dictionary though, but I've not spent long searching - try googling for "stardict dictionary urdu" and hunt through the results.

Its really important to state that ONLY WinRAR unzip bz2 files properly. I was struggling with z7 sticking to all instructions, until I realized that there have to be TREE FILES in a folder, not TAR. The key to this issue is
1) WinRAR
2)TREE FILES
To those who still struggle. GoTo

7zip works fine, you just need to extract from the .tar file as a separate step. WinRAR (and lots of other GUI tools) makes it easier by doing it in a single step though. You can also use bunzip2 and tar on the N900 to extract them (if you've got the necessary packages installed).

Thank you Rob1n for your post.

This is a good, clean and easy to use dictionary it also shows which particular dictionary the definition you are looking at comes from.

Excellent app.
