Oxford Dictionaries
Oxforddictionaries.com began with English and Spanish language sites, offering definitions and translations, thesauruses, and much more.
As part of the Oxford Global Languages (OGL) programme we regularly launch new resources in other languages. OGL aims to build dictionaries and lexical resources for 100 languages, many of which are under-represented in the digital landscape. For the first time, large quantities of quality lexical information for these languages will be created, collected, and made available to speakers, learners, and digital developers. We currently have OGL sites in isiZulu, Northern Sotho, Malay, Urdu, Setswana, Indonesian, Romanian, Latvian, Swahili, and Hindi.
Explore the documentation now and take a look at our ever-growing list of supported languages.
