Definitions of English words

Here is a list of the more difficult English words from our articles. Every page has a definition in simple English, information on how to pronounce the word, and lots of example sentences so that you know how to use it.

The list includes technical linguistic terms (also listed on a separate page).

Both are good dictionaries because: 1) they have lots of example sentences, and 2) they have IPA-based phonetic transcriptions.
