Nice! Thanks
I added German localization strings to it. Maybe you want to add those in your action.

Thanks for this! I'm surprised something like this wasn't included among the stock LB6 actions.

I do not understand java or php.
So can you tell me how this action works?
My bingo guess is you are retrieveing suggestions from a source which has nothing to do with Dictionary.app and hence this happens:

That's exactly what's happening. I'm planning on using the Dictionary's sources soon

That explains why no German suggestions are showing up for me. The change would be greatly appreciated.

This should be fixed now. Unfortunately, it looks like Apple's dictionaries aren't open to use. Likely for legal reasons.
I'll look for a free list of words for various languages soon

Hey ptujec,
I've looked around the Internet for lists of all German words but I'm not having any luck.
The ideal format would be a text file with one word per line.
Any idea where to find something like that?
