I am looking for a free to use dictionary in as many spoken languages (english, french, german, ...) as possible.
basically i will need to check if a string exists in a dictionary.
i was thinking about the dictionaries used in firefox or openoffice, since they should be open-source, right? where can i find and download them?
also ideally exists a java library to access the data in the dictionary.
Unpack Debian's freedict packages.
There is a free dictionary available WordNet
Please check this site http://wordnet.princeton.edu/
To connect dictionary from java there are many api available. Some of them are.
http://projects.csail.mit.edu/jwi/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jwordnet/
The Ubuntu Linux distribution comes with a plain English dictionary (words only). They are stored in
/usr/local/share/dict
I thought. Now I see palacsint his answer popping up. I think it are the same dictionaries.

I am writing a application similar to Word Web. For this Purpose, I need English Dictionary in a Jar file or Flat file format.
Is there a Jar file in Java with a English dictionary words in it? Or Is there any flat file or DB file available to get the words and Values into a HashMap?
Any help is very much Appreciated...
Thanks!
Well, this is a shot in the dark, but if you're on a unix / linux system you have access to
/usr/share/dict/words
which is a pretty extensive list if you ask me.
Maybe you can read the file and build whatever data structure you need out of it??

Looking for a library (with Java or Python APIs) that converts speech to text. 100% accuracy is not an absolute requirement because I just need to run some experiments for a prototype. Ideally it should accept an input file (e.g., .wav) and return the output as text.
Thanks.
You can use the Sphinx like kdazzle has suggested for you or you can also check out other java implementation here.
For python library, check out pyspeech or dragonfly. If the library can output the text, I think the library should be possible to print out the text into a file.
Sphinx is pretty good. It's made by the folks at Carnegie Mellon.

Any idea what is the best palce to find the list of available open sources/commercial softwares at a sigle place for java platform?
There is no such "the" list. The best you can get is more less up-to-date subset of something that is in a permanent evolution. Some examples:
http://java-source.net/
http://www.manageability.org/blog/opensource/
http://www.java-opensource.com/
http://oreilly.com/pub/q/java_os_directory
Some places to get you started:
Java.net
Project Kenai
Github
java2s also lists quite a lot of them and also groups them by categories

Can anyone recommend a based open source mailing list software ?
The following would all be desired if possible:
Java as the underlying language, as we have people who are experienced with Java
Something which is packaged as a war and can be dropped into a Tomcat server
A sleek interface
Underlying data should be reasonably transparent
Good support for groups - sometimes we want to send mail to everyone, sometimes only people working in a certain area etc.
This is for a non-profit tax-payer funded research organization, so open-source (free) is a high priority. Thanks.

What is the best Java spell checking API?
Free or purchased, must be royalty-free.
Just used Jazzy and it worked well. Try this example and download the dictionary.
Here's the Maven dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sf.jazzy</groupId>
<artifactId>jazzy</artifactId>
<version>0.5.2-rtext-1.4.1-2</version>
</dependency>
Sentry Spell Checker seems interesting. It supports dialog-based spell checking and as-you-type highlighting of misspelled words. It's a commercial product ($399 for the engine), but there are no royalty fees.
Jazzy is a simpler, open source alternative. It's been around for awhile, but doesn't seem to be under active development anymore. On the bright side, it is free (LGPL license).
I would look at Jazzy first to see if it fits your needs. There's a demo applet here where you can try it out.
There are a couple other I have heard of, but I don't know if they are any good.
Rapidspell and JTextCheck
