Folkets lexikon (Swedish–English)

What it actually is

A freely licensed Swedish–English dictionary hosted by KTH, with inflections, example sentences and audio on many entries. Because the dataset is openly published it is also what a lot of Swedish flashcard decks and apps are built from, so entries will look familiar. Free, no registration, and quick to search. It is community-maintained rather than editorially curated, so rare or technical words are patchier than in a commercial bilingual dictionary.
