  • Example sentences in context
  • Translations in 47 languages

Why it fits

The existing Dictionary Resources section lists Forvo (pronunciation), Oxford Learner's (definitions), Linguee (context). Word Orb covers all three in one resource plus etymology — a strong complement for ESL learners who want comprehensive word data.
