Online Latin Dictionary

Here's an online dictionary I discovered through Xavier High School's website. Unlike other Latin dictionaries I've tried before, this one seems to recognize the many permutations Latin words can make. A useful tool to be sure, but I would still try to limit use. All of us need to keep our own vocabularies strong through regular stretching and strength training. Be patient when you think you recognize that word. Give your brain the time to find the word on its own. Like exercise we may sometimes avoid it, but we're better off when we do it regularly. Then it can even be fun.
