Google Introduces Online Dictionary (google.com/dictionary)

Google, the company that for many has come to define the Internet, has quietly rolled out an online dictionary offering the meanings of words in more than two dozen languages.

A visit on Friday to a Google Dictionary service at google.com/dictionary showed a clean, simple Web page with a box for selecting languages from a drop-down list and a second box for typing in words to be defined.

The dictionary service offered definitions of words in 28 languages and to translate terms from or into English. -- AFP
