Babylon

Babylon is a multilingual dictionary and translator that supports instant translation. That is, when selecting a word and pressing a previously selected hotkey, the application provides the user with a window with a translation. It covers translation from and to 77 languages, and the human voice feature lets you listen to the correct pronunciation of words in about 30 languages. Additional dictionaries (including explanatory dictionaries from publishers such as Oxford, Britannica and Merriam-Webster) can also be added. As a bonus, Babylon developers have added tools to the application to convert currencies and systems of measures.

In addition to the above features, the program also includes a Text tab for translating whole passages copied from any text editor, supports full document translation, and has a nice graphical interface. Babylon is sold as an annual license (Classic, Pro and Premium plans), and the free demo includes one dictionary and a limited number of text and document translations.

Babylon offers instant, multilingual translation and pronunciation, making it a powerful tool for overcoming language barriers.
