What's this?dict.cc: English-German
and Multilingual Dictionary
The goal of dict.cc is to make it possible to share your vocabulary knowledge with the world. This is the main difference from other translation services - every user is encouraged to contribute to the English-German dictionary by adding and/or verifying translation suggestions. The resulting vocabulary database can be downloaded and used for free.Besides browsing the dictionary or searching for German-English translations you can also ask and answer questions related to the German or English language using the translation forum. To improve your language skills try the vocabulary trainer.
Disclaimer: The correctness of the translations cannot be guaranteed (nobody is perfect), but all input will be checked carefully. If you spot an error, please report it using the info button [i] located next to each translation within the search results.

2020-11-06: 18 years of dict.cc!
The eighteenth "birthday" of dict.cc takes place in 2020, a year with only one topic worldwide. We are all still fully immersed in the Corona crisis. This year the usage numbers of dict.cc and other online dictionaries have been noticeably lower than before. It seems like the restrictions in the economy are also noticeable in reduced use of dictionaries. But things will not stay that way and soon we'll be able to look back on the year and say: It's done, we survived it in good health, and things are looking much brighter again!
The content-related (and technical) development of dict.cc does not stop of course, home office or not, and here are the annual figures showing the progress we made:
1,219,593 German-English translations, 1,756,627 translations in other language pairs
1,302,333 audio recordings, 1,292,602 inflection entries and 352,987 illustrating images
275,012 registered users, 35,563 of them contributors
Thanks to every contributor!

2020-10-18: For reasons of clarity, animal and plant species (as well as fungi, biological families, orders, breeds, ...) are now tagged with the new subject "T" (taxonomic terms).
These entries are grouped further down the search results pages (except for exact search term matches). Longer entries are trimmed down to enable browsing through the alphabetical listing more quickly. Placing the mouse cursor over a term displays it completely. In this group there is no further separation related to the number of words, so entries that include alternative spellings (such as "alpine alumroot / alum-root / alum root") can be found at the expected positions in the alphabetical list.
