Family Resources


Please don't use Google Translate.

While it CAN give you a good idea of what a single word is, translating whole phrases will usually give you words that you haven't learned yet and will let me know very obviously that you used a computer and not your own knowledge.

Instead, try using Word Reference. This allows you to look up single words, just like a dictionary. However, when you use this website or the app, please know the following things so that you can choose the right word for what you are trying to express.

  • nf signifies a noun that is feminine
  • nm signifies a noun that is masculine
  • vtr signifies a transitive verb or an action word
  • adj signifies an adjective or a word that describes

You might enjoy using duoLingo as a family. It can be used as a website or downloaded as an app on your phone and you can compete to learn vocabulary and level up in your profile. It also gives you more vocabulary than students may get time to learn in class.

More family resources will be added as they become available!
