Il Nuovo De Mauro

What it actually is

About 160,000 entries, and uniquely useful for learners because De Mauro tags words by frequency band (fondamentale, di alto uso, comune…), so you can see at a glance whether a word is worth learning. Definitions are plainer than Treccani's, which makes it the friendlier first monolingual dictionary. Completely free and ad-supported; the interface is dated and there is no app.
