Top Dictionaries

One of the most comprehensive free online dictionaries in Cambridge Dictionary. Not only does it allow you to search for individual words, but it also gives you various related idiomatic expressions within your search terms. One great feature of Cambridge Dictionary is its categorization of entries into CEFR Levels of Proficiency for learners. By the way, you can create your own word lists through its "My Dictionary" feature (the feature we commonly use in our blogpost vocabulary reviews).

A unique feature of Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English online is the chance to listen to entry example sentences by clicking on a loudspeaker icon before the sentence.
