    well considering Burmese is a language that is not supported by
    Microsoft ... the above is relatively irrelevant.

    The data in the given site is in a legacy encoding. If you wnat to
    reuse data, it may be necessary to convert data to Unicode. A numbe
    rof tools do exist for converting the major legacy encodings to
    Unicode or to certain pseudo-Unicode solutions.

    Alternatively look at other Burmese dictionary sites such as
    http://sealang.net/burmese/dictionary.htm
