Online Dictionary for English - Spanish - English Translations

Friday, September 12th, 2008

We came across this usefull site when we were writing an hypertext document in english and needed to use the english translation for ‘contradicoriamente’. We thought it might be ‘contradictarily’, but we were not sure. So we truegled (I saw it on Google!) it first in order to find out how many times this word had been used in other hypertext documents (internet pages). It came up about 260 times. Checking one of the resulting pages, we stumbled upon a link to an ONLINE-DICTIONARY FOR ENGLISH-SPANISH-ENGLISH .
We typed in our word and were quickly served with a translation to spanish. We inmediately found the confirmation for our doubts, even though we had been a little sceptical since our searched word is not so common. In the truegeling world, you can see that when you compare the 262 mentions for ‘contradictarily’ to  4,630,000 references for ’sceptical’. 
From now on, we will use the word ‘contradictarily’ whenever we visit a web-site that offers online translations. Time will tell us, how good the dictionary from wordmagicsoft is. For the moment, we give it a full 5 stars.

The dictionary page is straight forward, just type in the word you need translated, choose direction for translation and click it.

The main page of the site reveals that the online dictionary is a free feature brought to the public by wordmagicsoft  who are using their site primarily to sell their off-line translation systems and dictionaries, as well as translation services on demand, both machine made translations and translations carried out by real persons.
