AnthyDict
AnthyDict is a dictionary and input-method utility for macOS that provides Japanese language support, particularly for kanji lookup and Anthy-based input method functionality. Based on its bundle ID prefix indicating a SourceForge project, it appears to be an open-source tool used primarily by Japanese language learners and users working with Japanese text input on macOS. The app integrates with the system input method architecture to support conversion and character input workflows.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionNo public information is readily available about whether a native Apple Silicon build of AnthyDict has been released. The app's SourceForge project page, if still active, would be the primary source for version history and architecture details. Given that you are about 2.5 years away from the September 2028 macOS 28 release when Rosetta 2 will be removed, we recommend contacting the AnthyDict project maintainers directly — either through SourceForge, GitHub (if they maintain a mirror), or any project email — to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned. If the project appears abandoned or unmaintained, you may want to explore alternative Japanese input methods that are actively maintained and confirmed to run natively on Apple Silicon, such as Google Japanese Input for Mac or Kotoeri (Apple's bundled Japanese input system), both of which offer modern native support.
