Best/favorite online bilingual dictionary for your language

Postby Linguaphile » 2021-11-24, 5:36

I'd like to make a list of "best" online bilingual dictionaries for different languages here. Please add one for languages you speak or languages you are learning, if you can!
Criteria:
  • The dictionary should be bilingual. (I've made a similar thread for monolingual dictionaries.)
  • List a single site you think is best, not a list of different sites and not a link to such a list. You should be able to search for a word directly from the site you link to. (It's probably the link you're most likely to use yourself if you want to look up a word online.)
  • If someone else has already added your language and you think a different site is better, add that one too!
  • Keep my list in your message and your own to it (so ideally by the end of the thread we'll have a long list in one post).

(es) WordReference English/Spanish with other language pairs available (searches 2 dictionaries, thesaurus, forum, conjugations)

(et) Keeleveeb English/Estonian with other language pairs available (searches 100+ dictionaries/databases/corpora simultaneously)
(smi-smk) Саамские словари Russian/Kildin (four dictionaries but you have to search them individually, small phrasebook)
(liv) Līvõkīel-ēstikīel-lețkīel sõnārōntõz Livonian/Estonian/Latvian (dictionary with sentence examples, conjugations)
(vot) Vadja keele sõnaraamat Estonian/Votic (dictionary with sentence examples & dialect variation)

(th) Thai-Language.com English/Thai (dictionary, bulk lookup, phonemic transcription, forum, a bit of grammar)
Sono di continuo a caccia di parole. Descriverei il processo così: Ogni giorno entro in un bosco con un cestino in mano. Trovo le parole tutt'attorno: sugli alberi, nei cespugli, per terra (in realtà: per la strada, durante la conversazioni, mentre leggo). Ne raccolgo quante più possibile. -Jhumpa Lahiri

I've added the best two sites for Georgian and one for Turkish.

[list][*]The dictionary should be bilingual. (I've made a similar thread for monolingual dictionaries.)

What about multilingual dictionaries? For example, this is a pretty useful comparative dictionary for Indo-Aryan languages. This is a far less useful comparative dictionary for Dravidian languages and chock-full of mistakes, but it is also the only such dictionary I know of!

Incidentally, most of the dictionaries I added here are pretty old, but honestly, I don't know of anything better for any of these languages. For Persian, Hindi, and Urdu, in particular, I'm pretty sure someone even told me these are the best dictionaries there are.
