EDICT & JMDICT are both public domain Japanese dictionaries in the form of plain-text and XML documents. EDICT is Japanese to English, while JMDICT is Japanese to multiple languages, including English.

EDICT has been utilized in many dictionary-type projects, including popular study resource for Japanese language students jisho.org

Jisho.org is a well-structured website offering a straightforward English-Japanese (and visa-versa) dictionary interface in addition to sample sentences for many words, effective Kanji dictionary (Kanji characters are Chinese characters used in Japanese context), etc
