I did this for a while and, as is typical for me, wrote something to
make the task a little easier.  I got a copy of the TeX version of the
dictionary and wrote a simple Perl script that does lookups in it.  If
the word you are looking up turns out to be a rafsi, it also looks up
the corresponding gismu.

I'll make the program available if anyone wants it.
