Online dictionaries

[SanPellegrino]

Does anybody know good online dictionaries like this one for german - english?
I would be interested in german/english translating into spanish/italian/slavic languages

limited vocabulary, but for the words they know it is fairyl good!

 

[SanPellegrino]

thx! but like you said a bit limited, it didn't even show spanish "severa" (severe), but it knows "porro" - joint I wonder what that means...

I think Online dictionaries are very handy, I am much quicker finding a word than with a book.

If anyone needs a good french/english online dictionary, this one is quite effective :

CNRS English French Dictionary
Dictionnaire Français Anglais du CNRS

Message Edited : I've just added a link in English for american fellows who would like to find a word in french.

 

[SanPellegrino]

thx Marla. If I only hadn't the trouble with all those accents...

 

[Grille]

don't worry about missing accents:

Si votre clavier ne possède pas de caractères accentués, vous pouvez taper les mots sans accents. Les entrées du dictionnaire correspondant aux mots accentués vous seront proposées comme alternatives.

frei übersetzt, im 'on-line Stil': Falls sich Ihr Klavier nicht durch akzentuierten Charakter auszeichnet, hauen Sie einfach betonungslos in die Tasten...usw

I did that (spared accent circumflex): I tried "bete" and got a link to the correct "bête" (that's me...).

Babelfish

(Or were you referring to the actual fish?)

I have a program called WordFinder that is really good, but it costs. I'm not sure whether it's Swedish or foreign though.

the problem with the actual fish is that the thing can't read while sitting in my ear

Someone on this forum recommended me a good english-dutch but due to a disabled search function I can't find it anymore.

Although this is a thesaurus and not a dictionary, I can't stop myself from posting a link:

Spanish : ¡WorldLingo se parece trabajar!

Thanx a lot for that Aphex Twin ! I have a new link in my favourite thanx to you.

I know people on this board are talking languages above. I know it's been translated correctly in French. About the other language, I can't say. If anyone of you see a mistake, I would be curious to know !
