AureliaeLacrimae Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I've been looking for some good dictionaries online. I know that a lot of us like using Google Translator - it's quick and it's relatively good, but when you do something more important, you need a better, more reliable dictionary. Here are a few which can be good sources:I've used Lexilogos before: http://www.lexilogos.com/english/polish_dictionary.htmIt's a very good reference. A lot of different dictionaries are listed and they're most good. You can choose which one you need the most at the moment. I always end up using the same ones, though.Cambridge Learner's Dictionary, English-Polish; http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english-polish/I'd checked a few entries. The only thing I didn't like was the lack of synonyms. I really love synonyms and I think they're extremely useful.Despite the odd name, Bab.La Dictionary seems like a good one: http://en.bab.la/dictionary/english-polish/pendantI'd liked the fact that there are a lot of versions of pronunciation available and various meanings of the same word. Dict also seems like a good choice: http://dict.pl/dict_isoThey even have "words of the week" section which is usually from one topic. It's a nice way of learning a few new words without having to search for hours... And then, there's Ectaco: http://www.ectaco.co.uk/English-Polish-DictionaryI liked this one because you could insert only part of the word and it would find all possible references. Sometimes you just can't remember the entire word, so having this option helps. And when you enter one word, I tested it with "kind", you get all possible meanings and parts of speech - adjective, noun... This too is very helpful.I hope you find something you can use. If you have more suggestions, please, do add them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anna3101 Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Hi there,I also quite like Wordreference:www.wordreference.comYou can choose multiple languages there, Polish among them. It's quite good, I'm using it a lot when I'm stuck with a Polish word inside my mind but forget the English equivalent.Ania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
