I suspect the standard GUI framework Tkinter is not going to be your best
bet. You might find that PyQt or PyGTK will offer better multi lingual
support  (although thats just a guess on my part!).


Might I also suggest wxPython?  I tried Tk and Qt early on, but found that
wx fit my needs much better (and I like the looks of the result better
too.)
I have little to no experience with LTR handling myself, but there's a
very
good, active support list for wxPython and I suspect that someone on that
list may have insights that can help...

For the type of work the OP has previously described I doubt that wxPython
fits the bill as the Python 3 version called Phoenix is still in
development.  More here http://wiki.wxpython.org/ProjectPhoenix


Still under development, true - but all but a few of the controls are up
and running, and a lot of the people on the list are using Phoenix now.
(Not I - I'm still using 2.7 - but I've been following developments with
interest.)


So wxPython Phoenix 1.0 doesn't get released until all controls are up and running, which might be tomorrow, might be this time next year. I therefore could not recommend using it to someone who's trying to put a Hebrew Dictionary database together. Much better IMHO to use something that's already proven in the field.
