Yes.
Slavonic languages will be hard, but you'll probably find something.

Software for a phone less likely than electronic dictionary Feb 17, 2010

From my experience if no decent electronic dictionary is available than software for a phone is even more likely but probably it's worth trying.

Best Regards
Stanislaw
