Irani was speaking at the launch of a web portal - 'Bharatvani', which focuses on becoming a single point source for multiple language learning.

She said work was also going on in writing of dictionaries that will bridge the gap between Hindi and 30 tribal languages.

Along with the portal, the Bharatavani Multi-lingual App called Bharatavani was also launched which will enable users to search for one language text in another language as well as get meanings in different languages, an official statement said.

According to HRD minister, this app is India's first and largest multilingual dictionary.

Currently, the app has 35 multilingual dictionaries and the Education Ministry aims to extend it to 250 dictionaries in an year's time. More than 130 dictionaries, glossaries and terminology books have been posted on the web portal, the statement said.

It will be much fruitful if the dictionaries are made available for download in Unicode so that so that they can be used offline in a variety of ways.
In that case, they may also be used as 'raw material' for other projects.

We need this type of dictionary for Indian languages with standard Roman transliteration.
