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
How has the dictionary evolved?
First of all, we want to thank all the collaborators for their help, since without them and them this project would not be possible. Since the ship sailed there in 2010 we have received a total of 177,882 Contributions to define 120,418 different words or expressions that have consulted more than 100,000 readers and have directly helped 47 people who asked the dictionary for a word that was not Registered therein.

furoya
- uranofobia
3
It is the fear of heaven, although it is also used as the fear of not being worthy of heaven. While the former would be a pathology close to acrophobia, the latter is highly debatable because it can be nothing more than a neurosis with a culpable (and religious) origin without anxiety attacks. And from the etymological point of view I can think of more objections, because the Greek word 959; 965; 961; 945; 957; 959; 962; (ouranos) describes the celestial vault or the domains of the god Uranus where all the deities of the pantheon are located, but not the place where the souls of the virtuous dead ended up (in fact, they all ended up in Hades or hell), but it is possible that in the Septuagint they translated it that way, and then it would make some sense. If anyone knows the data, they can add it here. See suffix -phobia .

furoya
- autodisomofobia
3
It's the fear of having bad body odor.
