Finds the word you mean when you can only describe it.
A reverse dictionary: type a definition — 'the feeling of being watched' — and it returns candidate words, alongside a thesaurus, wildcard pattern matching for crosswords, and rhymes. It queries a large set of dictionaries at once instead of one publisher's. The interface has been plain for twenty years and is all the better for it.
Questions
