WordReference is probably the best online dictionary, and the most widely trusted.

(Apologies for the delay in responding, I've had some vision issues, detail here)

Thanks very much @EternalDreamer01 , WordRef is a great dictionary. I'll do a quick check, fix the conflicts, and will merge. Appreciated!

It looks like the dictionary references might be backwards. E.g. I tried out the Czech URL, https://www.wordreference.com/encz/[LUTE], and put in the Czech word "pes" for dog. That returns a bunch of info, but not what I expected:

When I use https://www.wordreference.com/czen/[LUTE], the resulting https://www.wordreference.com/czen/pes does give me "dog":

Back to @EternalDreamer01 to confirm. Cheers!

Hello @jzohrab , thanks for the reply !
You misstyped the word, try : https://www.wordreference.com/encz/dog

However I realised that WordReference was already present for some of them, and appear twice, I will fix that

Thanks @EternalDreamer01 -- I assumed that you were adding these dictionaries for English speakers who were studying Czech, in which case they'd be reading a text with "pes" and would want to look up https://www.wordreference.com/czen/pes to see "dog".

As it is, these wordref dictionaries all are going from english to some other language :-) -- in which case, I guess that all of these should only be added to English. As added, the URLs won't be helpful for the given languages. If they're all switched from https://www.wordreference.com/enXX/pes to https://www.wordreference.com/XXen/pes, they'll be good for English speakers. Does that make sense, or am I missing something obvious?
