most of us used Babylon as a windows dictionary
the Alternative in Linux (Ubuntu) is StarDict or the enhanced GUI Version QstarDict
the idea is to convert babylon Glossaries to stardict format
for Arabic users I saved you the trouble of converting formats ,you can downlaod the already convertd glossaries from here
http://egy1987.googlepages.com/dic.zip
then all you need is installing QStarDict or StarDict or Both from Synaptic
you can use the old school way
sudo apt-get install qstardict
then extract dic.zip file to your Desktop and then type .. “cd Desktop”
sudo mv dic /usr/share/stardict/dic
I tried gksudo nautilus but it didn’t I think there is something wrong with permissions
enjoy your new dictionary
for non arabic users here is the full way of converting formats
