Great Dictionary Tool In Your Search Bar
“Le Grand Dictionnaire Terminologique” is used extensively by French-English and English-French translators worldwide. In case you don’t know it yet, find it here:

Maybe this is a new feature, but it can now be integrated to your search bar, it’s the one that sits at the top of my Firefox browser window (it also works with Internet Explorer). If it was there already, then it shows how deeply-rooted, time-wasting, habits can be -I’ve always accessed the dictionary from my bookmarks sidebar. There are two separate functions for EN to FR and FR to EN.
I’ve just done a quick search on “dog,” then on “chien.” Each time the page opens with all results already listed. Wow.
Thanks to our Canadian cousins for their superb work.

@ all,
It’s a tool for translators, don’t expect to use it as an automatic translation tool!
