![]() While it’s true that our dictionary is “unabridged” (we never write definitions while on bridges), it doesn’t exactly include every word we know of. (Except for the mountweazels, obviously.)Īnd if you get through all that, check out our other website, (we’re trying to think of a better name).Ĭorrection : The headline of this article promises, a bit disingenuously, a list of every word we know of. We promise everything you’ll read is true. Like we said, you can look up words one at a time, or you can start with the letter A and browse your way through the dictionary, all the way to the letter Z. Now that you’re here, you might as well stay awhile where you know you’ll be safe from all the foolery and nonsense that’s happening everywhere else except this exact website, which you have to admit has a very straightforward and no-nonsense name. We hope you’ve enjoyed this joke and our explanation of it (everyone has always reassuringly told us that the funniest kind of jokes are the ones that need to be explained). ![]() (A list of all words and what they mean? Lol who do we think we are, stewards of language?) Yes, the gag is that we just defined what a dictionary is as if it didn’t already exist, which is our way of reminding you how weird and awesome and kind of hilarious it is that dictionaries do exist. This way you can browse through the list from start to finish.Īt this point you may have realized that this all sounds like an April Fools’ joke, which it is, but everything we’ve said is true (which is the best kind of April Fools’ joke, or at least the least worst kind). (A neat thing is that some of the words mean more than one thing.)Ī cool feature about the list is that you can use this website to look up any word on the list on a whim, which is how most people use it after they encounter a word they don’t know, such as when talking to a smarter friend or reading a book (so that they can be the smarter friend).Īnother cool thing about the list is that we’ve ranked every single word! We figured the fairest and most logical way to rank the words was in alphabetical order. We’ve been compiling a list of words that people use in the English language, and for each word that we add to the list, we write a few sentences about what it means. For years, we here at have been working on a pretty ambitious project.
