I am a PhD student living in Czech republic. I have a lot of experience with IT and management. I am working on a project that has dictionaries for more than 60 world languages. I am skilled in Java, C#, PHP, HTML and XML.

I have started to develop a dictionary of basic meanings for the OLPC project. I think language education is very important and kids have to have a good dictionary so they can learn foreign languages. The dictionary I am working on is very special because it is not just a bilingual dictionary but connects all languages in the system. It contains definitions, synonyms, sound files and images.

I have collected screenshots of about 50 different dictionary applications . It takes to analyze these dictionary applications to create ideal dictionary applications for the kids. The application has to be easy to use yet very powerful.

I am working with many users from all over the world. The entries in the dictionary of the basic meanings have to be edited to make sure they are correct. If you know reliable people who can help to edit/review entries please contact me as soon as possible. Our system contains entries for more than 60 world languages so it takes tens of people speaking tens of different languages to review all these entries.
