I'm pretty sure the dictionary on this site is the most extensive searchable Esperanto dictionary online?

I'd like to add it to the list of possible languages that people can use as part of the integrated reading system explained here: www.fluentin3months.com/learning-with-texts/, (kind of like LingQ, but open source and free, and usable for any language) but for that I'd need a URL that can incorporate a variable representing the term. Any ideas what that URL (presuming it's a frame) could be? Something like lernu.net/vortaro?sr=en?term=word

This way someone could paste a blog or wikipedia article into the interface and just click and get an immediate translation and not lose their momentum.

Or if there are alternatives?

Cheers!

Planoj pri la estonto de lernu! could be better place for that request.

I was asking if it would currently be possible. It seems very technically feasible depending on how the dictionary is currently coded, there may already be a frame option.

From what I understand it's not 100% open and all so you'd probably have to talk to the head honchos about that. Jev seems to be the go-to person, but I may be wrong.

I like the idea of a free LingQ though, I found the concept interesting but sorta inaccessible on a deeper level, me being broke and all okulumo.gif

Someone wrote an app for the "Chrome" browser that places the dictionary into a separate frame, allowing good access to the dictionary. They posted it into the "News" forum

I installed it yesterday, and it looks good. Is this what you are looking for?

I don’t know, but ReVo may be more extensive.

ReVo's probably a bit more extensive and many of the things ReVo lacks, the Lernu! dictionary probably lacks as well. On the flipside, the Lernu! dictionary is (to my understanding) more actively updated.

To translate the word "hello" from english to esperanto:
http://lernu.net/cgi-bin/serchi.pl?delingvo=en&...

I'm sure it's possible to work out how to do other words and languages from the above.

For those of us who use KDE as our desktop manager there's a plasmoid available at:

I use this on my desktop, it's very useful and I helped by contributing some code to the author of the plasmoid.

As a Firefox user, it'd be really helpful if Lernu's dictionary could be searched on with an upper bar search engine, but that doesn't quite seem to work.

For the second dictionary (LWT supports two), a text corpus might be good for getting sample sentences for flash cards etc

Here's a search query example - search word "hundo" in texts written by Zamenhof

For mobile phone or widget use I use
