      OneLook Dictionary Search
      Submitted by TE Editor on 15 November, 2003 - 13:00

      Searches a database of some 963 dictionaries for definitions of both words and phrases. For teachers, the additional wildcard feature is perhaps useful for work on morphology, as it enables parts of words and sequences of letters to be searched for, and the "reverse dictionary" feature means that lexis related to a word, phrase or topic can be instantly brainstormed.
