On-Line Dictionaries:

Past students have been fans of
Whitaker’s Words.  It is linked with other useful items over at Notre Dame.  Be sure to scroll down and see the list of endings! Here is a direct link to the site.

A much more powerful tool is at the Perseus Project:

Perseus Latin Lexicon Search -- mirrors:   Germany   Chicago
n.b. that if your word isn’t a headword in the dictionary, a link comes up allowing you to see possible inflections that would produce your word.  E.g., a search for "militum" won't bring up a dictionary entry, because this is a genitive plural, not a nominative singular.  However, there is a link that let's you find "possible dictionary forms of militum."  Clicking this link plugs your word "militum" into a thing called the "morphological search tool."  Here, the electronic numina will tell you every dictionary entry they think could produce the form "milites."  In this example you get exactly one dictionary headword, "miles ... a soldier."  To see that word's full dictionary entry, click on either the "Lewis & Short" link or the "Elem[entary] Lewis" link.

Try this with some ambiguous words like "portas" (either an acc. pl. noun or a 2nd sg. verb) or "quod" and look at all the information you'll get.

If you really like the
morphological search tool, you can go straight to it HERE.  The mirrors are here (in Germany) and here (in Chicago).


There is a whole
list of on-line Latin dictionaries at this site.

And here's a
single, huge file with a bunch of vocabulary on one page.  Save it as a file to your hard disk and search the file as the need arises.

For some modern Latin check out David Morgan's
lexical instrument at Furman, where he is a french professor.
