I need a place to talk about words. English words, Spanish words, the fascinating interplay of the two, and perhaps most of all the origins of words. First, my two favorite word websites are:
WordReference.com which allows you to look up English definitions (with links to Dictionary.com and Merriam Webster online) as well as all of the following:
- English to Spanish
- Spanish to English
- Spanish monolingual
- Spanish synonyms
- And many more.
Dictionary.com is English only, but draws from multiple dictionaries including an etymological dictionary, American heritage dictionary which often discusses word origins in a chattier way than just the hyperconcentrated parenthetical etymologies of normal dictionaries.
