WWWJDIC

Jim Breen's WWWJDIC, http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?1C is the source dictionary for both Kotoba and Shinkanji, and both application authors regularly update their dictionaries.

Users can help to improve the dictionaries by providing definitions. If you find a word that's missing, please do a bit of research on the word and provide us with a definition. Use the "Enter New Entry" at the above website. It helps a lot if you can provide a source for the word (a book/website in which it appears), or a reference in one of the major dictionaries.
