Online Dictionaries: wordreference.com

Something different for todaywww.wordreference.com

Wordreference.com provides, in my experience, reasonably reliable translations for a range of European languages, including English. 

At the bottom of each page, you can find examples of specific words in use - this is particularly useful for foreign speakers trying to find the 'cultural equivalent' of a word or expression.


It also has an online interactive help forum, where speakers of all the languages come together and help each other.  This is a great way of checking what you're saying is really what a native speaker would say.
