Spanish open dictionary



Welcome to the largest Spanish educational and research project on the Internet. This open and editable dictionary aims to offer a tool where, on the one hand, users broaden knowledge about the different meanings that each of the words and expressions of Spanish can adopt. And, on the other hand, give the same community the ability to expand the database with new words, unknown or unregistered, or expand the different meanings that can adopt the existing words. For identical words and according to which country of the world we move, it is very frequent to find completely different uses, that is why, once the official definition is mentioned, the dictionary allows users to expand it with new meanings or nuances. In short, a dictionary edited by users and for users. Daily among all the meanings uploaded by users will select one of them as word, expression or theme of the day. This meaning will appear on the home page just after this presentation for at least 24 hours. Finally, we have made the project extensible to words from other languages ??or disciplines, you can access these dictionaries through the drop-down that appears next to the search box and the operation is identical to the main dictionary. Hoping that the use of the dictionary is to his liking we say goodbye.

Sincerely,
Spanish Working Group

First of all, we want to thank all the collaborators for their help, since without them and them this project would not be possible.

furoya Image
furoya

tuba bebida
  1

It may be that they are a noun and an adjective, which as a phrase here would be out of place, but it seems to me that the second is a clarification so as not to confuse the former with a musical instrument. See tuba ("alcoholic fermentation of palm sap"), drink ("liquid to drink", "feminine to drink").

  
furoya Image
furoya

echar una firma en el brasero
  1

Since "to put a signature" can have another interpretation besides "to affirm or fan the embers", I suppose that the "in the brazier" will serve to avoid confusion.
