I'm trying to find a way of analysing the structure of words for my linguistics studies. For example I want to be able to analyse all words in French to see if they contains a given syllable. For this I need to be able to read the contents of a dictionary entry by entry. Has anyone any idea how I could read a dictionary in B4A? Any dictionary would be suitable. I realize this is long shot but if anyone can suggest something I would be most grateful.

"Strange" question; better, few informations: do you have dictionaries? What type are they?

Anyway, you should/could have a db with your dictionary/ies and perform queries (in your example using the SQL LIKE operator).

Thanks. What I am saying is that I need to access a language dictionary for example Oxford or Larousse
(preferably bi-bilingual but mono-lingual would suffice).
