Getting wordy

Posted on 15:57 by Unknown
Posted by Vlad Denisov, Google Definitions Engineer

What's an iwi? What does spiel mean? Google Definitions is one example of how we work to make the world's information more accessible: ask us what a word means, and we'll try our best to get a good variety of definitions from all corners of the Web. So I'm happy to say that a handy feature just got handier; as of this week, Google Definitions is multilingual, and is indexing more sources than ever. Enjoy the peace of mind of knowing that the definition of voip is just one click away.
