salutations, jhourcle, we couldn't use the stemming technique because the language in question involves root changing and many irregular forms. BrowserUk, dividing the dictionary might be a good solution, but it would not be very convenient for the way we are planning to process the user input (since there would be many-word inputs). we implemented a solution by using Berkeley DB: 
#!c:/perl/bin/perl.exe
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
use BerkeleyDB;
   my $filename = "dict";
   my $db = new BerkeleyDB::Hash
                -Filename => $filename,
                -Flags    => DB_CREATE
        or die "Cannot open file $filename: $! $BerkeleyDB::Error\n";

getting the value by a given key is done by: 
$db->db_get("word", $lang); #the word is stored in the $lang variable.

[download]
and works very fast. so, that DICTE filehandle code, instead of throwing values to a %dict hash, it throws values to a database by $db->db_put($english,$lang). this database creation has to be done only when the dictionary changes, but it's very slow. so, now the question is: is there a command-line Windows program that can convert flat-file databases do Berkeley DB databases? thank you in advance.
