    WordReference.com - Translation Dictionaries

    WordReference offers free online translation dictionaries. Use WordReference as you would use a regular dictionary.

    As with every dictionary, you can’t translate whole sentences or web pages. The most popular dictionaries are the Spanish dictionary, French dictionary and the Italian dictionary. The Spanish dictionary alone has over 120,000 words with more than 250,000 translations. A supplement to the Spanish English dictionary adds many more translations, and you can ask any other question you have in the language forums, too. The French and Italian dictionaries are also large and growing. The French dictionary has over 250,000 translations and the Italian dictionary has nearly 200,000. As a support to these dictionaries, they’ve created language forums. If you have a question about language usage, you can first search the hundreds of thousands of previous questions. WordReference provides you with a number of tools that allow people easier access to the dictionaries. They include the WordReference Toolbar for Internet Explorer, as well as plug-ins and modules for Firefox and Google. You can have WordReference at your finger tips in your browser for quick consultations of the dictionaries. It’s free and easy to install. It has customizable buttons and right click menu entry to translate a word in a webpage.

    Wordreference.com In their own words

    “I started this site in 1999 in an effort to provide free online bilingual dictionaries and tools to the world for free on the Internet. The site has grown gradually ever since to become one of the most-used online dictionaries, and the top online dictionary for its language pairs of English-Spanish, English-French, English-Italian, Spanish-French, and Spanish-Portuguese. Today, I am happy to continue working on improving the dictionaries, its tools and the language forums. I really do enjoy creating new features to make the site more and more useful. I welcome your comments. While I read each and every comment, lack of free time keeps me from responding to most. I do appreciate them! If you have general questions that other WordReference visitors might be able to answer, it is probably best to ask them in the Comments and Suggestions forum.” Michael Kellogg

    Why Wordreference.com might be a killer

    One of the greatest barriers of Internet has been language, as much of the content is in English and many users are reading English-language Web pages as a second language. Many readers probably understand much of what they are reading, but not every single word. WordReference provides you a number of useful online dictionaries and the possibility to have them at your finger tips in your browser for quick consultations of the dictionaries.

    Some questions about Wordreference.com

    Will online dictionaries replace the traditional paper dictionary? Will WordReference be able to provide much better information than you can get from a paper dictionary?
