the last millennium. It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning,
history, and pronunciation of over half a million words, both
present and past. |

Dictionary.com is a multi-source dictionary
search service produced by
Lexico Publishing Group, LLC, a leading
provider of language reference products and services on the
Internet. |

The Free Dictionary |
Free Dictionary containing English, Medical,
Legal, Financial, and Computer Dictionaries. Also includes
Thesaurus, Acronyms, Idioms, Encyclopedia, a Literature Reference
Library and a search engine. A great resource for scholars! |
 |
Think of this web site
as a search engine for words and phrases: If you have a word for
which you'd like a definition or translation, we'll quickly
shuttle you to the web-based dictionaries that define or translate
that word. If you don't know how to spell the word, we'll help you
do that too. No word is too obscure: More than 5 million words in
more than 900 online dictionaries are indexed by the OneLookŪ
search engine. |
|
Pseudodictionary |
hello, and welcome to pseudodictionary, the place where words
you've made up can become part of an actual online dictionary!
slang, webspeak, colloquialisms...you name it, if you know a word
that should be in the dictionary but isn't, submit it and we'll
post it on this site (with credit given to you of course). |
|
Word Spy |
Welcome to Word
Spy! This Web site is devoted to lexpionage, the
sleuthing of new words and phrases. These aren't "stunt words" or
"sniglets," but new terms that have appeared multiple times in
newspapers, magazines, books, Web sites, and other recorded
sources. |
