Frequently asked questions
Common questions about the dictionary.
Where do the definitions come from?+
From the free Dictionary API, which draws on Wiktionary. Coverage is good for ordinary vocabulary and thinner for technical terms, brand names and very new words.
Why is there no audio for some words?+
Because the source has no recording for it. The written pronunciation is still shown when one exists.
Does it cover other languages?+
English only at the moment.
