I'm a very new ubuntu user just turned from windows. I was wondering if I can get the Cambridge off-line dictionary without wine ?
Any other easy way to do ?
I know there are alternatives to it but Cambridge dict. is the one I'm familiar with in my job so I work on it faster

Software not intended for usage on Linux will not work with Linux.
All methods will envolve some sort of usage of Windows where virtualization with VMWare or VirtualBox is the best thing to use. Even far superior to WINE.
The best option to get rid of this (to me ;) ) unhealthy dependency you have on Windows is to take a plunge and try to get the hang of one of our native versions. Or to focus on a version that is independent of operating system.
This is a bit much to go on: https://askubuntu.com/a/417132/15811 but it is worth the effort ;)
