ABSTRACT:
A method and system for retrieving information from an electronic dictionary. The system stores all information about words that have the same normalized form into a single entry within the electronic dictionary. The normalized form of a word has all lower case letters and no diacritical marks. When information is to be retrieved from the dictionary for a word, the word is first normalized and then the dictionary is searched for the entry corresponding to that normalized word. The entry that is found contains the information for that word.
