Word or phrase
To meet the needs of people learning English, Reverso offers a free English dictionary that goes far beyond what a normal monolingual dictionary or thesaurus can provide by explaining the use of words and phrases in natural language and providing real-life examples. This English dictionary for learners features definitions written in language that is easy to understand, examples taken from actual texts and conversations, and explanations of grammar.
How to take part:
One of the biggest challenges when you learn English is keeping up with new words and meanings that enter the language. The meaning of slang, colloquial expressions and idioms is often difficult to figure out, and it takes time for them to appear in traditional paper and online dictionaries. That’s why Reverso offers you the opportunity to share your knowledge and help others learn English by adding words and phrases to the online dictionary, with definitions, synonyms, and examples of use.
The English dictionary for learners is more than just an ordinary monolingual dictionary, because the results include grammar notes and examples from English as it is really used. By simply clicking on an English word, you can also see its synonyms, hear its pronunciation, or conjugate it.
