I am portuguese and when i write something in my PDA, the given words are in english (the words that you see when you type something, and if you wish you can select that word).

Is there are any free software with portuguese words? I am not asking for a translator or a dictionary but an apllication that allows me to input portuguese words when working with pocketword/excel or so.

thanks
:)

thanks for your welcome :)

i think that th elink that you gave me its for a trial version...is there any free one?

i feel myself in the right of having one in my language for free. European Union demand that we have the right to buy things in our mother tongue, and i agree, why do they still selling this material?

If you happen to have an online dictionary of the most often used, say, 1000-2000 Portuguese words, I create the custom dictionary from it and put it on my site.

Eu também sou português. Com o tempo, as palavras que escreveres vão entrando automaticamente para essa lista, no entanto palavras com caracteres com acentos não. Atenção que se escreveres as palavras com erros elas ficam com erros e um hard reset vai apagar a lista.
