Anglish Wordbook

How to Use
You can use your device's 'Find on/in Page' tool to search the Wordbook as an English – Anglish dictionary. Include a space before and/or after your word/query to narrow your search results. For example, searching for "know" will include words like "knowledge", but searching for " know " with spaces will only yield instances of that word. (On Windows & Linux: CTRL+ F. On Mac: CMD+F.
