Wiktionary VS WordReference

When you use the dictionary in English, as I tell to anyone learning English, the best dictionary is not a traditional dictionary, but is wiktionary.org, which itself includes the same definitions as the ones you've linked, but additionally contains "usage notes" that point out how rare and niche the archaic use of "America" to refer to a geographical continent is. It only comes up when you are talking about... Source: 11 months ago

Wiktionary.org is very good if you can read Finnish well enough. I don't expect English wiktionary to have a lot of content. Source: 11 months ago

Also, on wordreference.com it says transgenre means "(person) with different gender... Source: about 1 year ago

You're doing nothing wrong, it's that no app is perfect! I use wordreference.com , it is the most accurate online dictionary, and even though it might not be exactly what you're looking for, forvo.com is also a great tool for pronunciation. For verb conjugations, some learners use cooljugator.com but I find it has many mistakes, so, not ideal. You could try instead... Source: about 1 year ago
