In this paper we present a web-based Interactive Arabic Dictionary developed in HIAST (Higher Institute
for Applied Sciences and Technology). Users can search online any Arabic word. The system provides
different meanings with example sentences and
multimedia illustrations, in addition to other related
information like associated words, semantic domains, expressions, linguistic avails, common mistakes, and
morphologic, syntactic and semantic information. The dictionary can be enriched collaboratively by
expert users with new words, new meanings for available entries, or other morphological, syntactic, and
semantic related information.
