Webster’s Online Dictionary – with Multilingual Thesaurus Translation

Filed under: Uncategorized — Towse @ 10:30 pm

This is a wonderful time sink.

from the site: What do you get when you start with Webster’s classic 1913 unabridged dictionary, and you add updated definitions, thousands of images (one picture being worth a thousand words…), quotes, trade names, references, timelines, translations and any other bit of information that can help someone understand a word from as many perspectives as possible? For any given word, what you get is Webster’s Online Dictionary with Multilingual Thesaurus Translation.

If I pop towse into the search I get all sorts of information up to and including how to spell out “towse” using Conan Doyle’s Dancing Men code.
