About the source
Entries come from the Purnachandra Ordia Bhashakosha, the seven-volume Odia–English–Bengali–Hindi dictionary compiled by Gopal Chandra Praharaj and published between 1931 and 1940, around 9,500 pages covering some 185,000 words. The text was digitised by the Digital Dictionaries of South Asia project (University of Chicago) and structured by OdiaNLP.
Things to know
The Bhashakosha records the language of the early 20th century, including many Sanskrit and literary words, so some meanings and spellings are old-fashioned. The digitised text can contain recognition errors. English search uses the dictionary's own English glosses.
