NADSAT Translation dictionary
After playing with dictionaries here, here, here, here, etc. I wanted to see If I could write one.
Please read the first pages of my dictionary for more information Spoiler:
At minimum use gluggy's excellent Java Mobi Metadata Editor to set your book metadata to "zu" for PopUp searches to work. Here is something to demo the PopUp and Search: Spoiler:
Ah, and for you Klingon would-be, here is a guide to help you spit the latest translations: Spoiler:
And also, for you Vulcan fans, here is a guide to help you logically understand the latest translations: Spoiler:
For you too Ferengi here is a guide to profit from learning: Spoiler:
And not to forget you: Spoiler:

Hehehe, preparing a "zu" book (for twobob) showed that I had not tested enough, PopUp search didn't work. Oops, I should have tested that better!
At least, opening the dictionary itself works : Well, I will try to correct in v0.2. Last edited by PoP; 02-12-2013 at 07:27 PM. |

I added it and set the metadata of the book to Zulu but it isn't detecting right. When I look up a word it shows it using the correct dictionary but it says no definition found. I think I'm doing something wrong.
I just added the mobi to documents, should I drop it into dictionaries? Also do I only put the mobi in or the other files that come with it? Last edited by grant.ben08; 02-12-2013 at 07:23 PM. |

Cross post, see above. You are right. *I* am doing something wrong. Hang on, only push the .mobi.

Didn't see the above post until after I posted, sorry.
I want to thank you for this by the way. Once I started looking into this I saw that to make one was going to be somewhat beyond my expertise I just sort of gave up on it. I just printed of my own list of the words and taped it inside my cover. So again, this is awesome and thank you. Last edited by grant.ben08; 02-12-2013 at 07:43 PM. |

v0.2
Updated the first post with v0.2. Now the PopUp works
Was caused by stupidly misplacing my intro pages in the html. Now I am thinking of v0.3, better formatting, more frills, a toc maybe, not introducing more bugs... Hope it works for you. Enjoy. EDIT: ToC done Last edited by PoP; 02-15-2013 at 05:04 PM. Reason: toc completed |

Just loaded it on there and tested it and it is working GREAT!
I agree that the printed list is no where near as fun as having a PoP dictionary it was just simply getting me by. |

v0.4
Done
Inflections (for a single word) now work! And I added some "styles" to the html. To try it, find a test.mobi ebook in the zip. Spoiler:
