Wiktionary

Multi-language

Free multilingual dictionary with etymologies, IPA and full conjugation tables.

Details

Over 100 language editions; the English edition alone has millions of entries covering hundreds of languages, with IPA, declension and conjugation tables, etymologies and usage notes that commercial apps usually paywall. The etymology sections are quietly one of the best vocabulary-retention tools available. Being crowd-sourced, coverage is uneven and rare entries can be wrong — cross-check anything unusual against a native-language dictionary.

The Centre for the Greek Language's free portal: Triantafyllidis dictionary and more.

DictionariesWebsitesTools Free IntermediateAdvanced B1–C2

Details

A state-backed portal hosting the Triantafyllidis Dictionary of Standard Modern Greek — the reference monolingual dictionary — together with modern Greek grammars, searchable text corpora, dialect lexicons and teaching material for Greek as a foreign language, including distance-learning courses at A1–B1. Everything is free and ad-free. It is a scholarly site in Greek, laid out for researchers rather than learners, so expect to navigate it rather than be guided through it.

Forvo

Multi-language

Crowd-sourced pronunciations of nearly any word by native speakers.

Details

Around 6 million words recorded by native speakers across 400+ languages, usually with several accents per word so you can hear regional variation. Free to search on the site; the paid tiers are aimed at API users and bulk audio downloads. Indispensable for names, place names and anything a TTS voice would mangle — many learners wire it directly into Anki for card audio.

Lexigram's inflectional dictionary covers tens of thousands of lemmas and millions of inflected forms, and will conjugate a verb through tense and mood or decline a noun and adjective for you — exactly the lookup Greek learners need most, given how much of the grammar sits in endings. A synonyms-and-definitions dictionary sits alongside it. The interface is in Greek, aimed largely at Greek schoolchildren, and some sections push you toward an account.
