This program allows you to search for relationships between words, concepts, and people. It is a "combination thesaurus", "rhyming dictionary", "pun generator", and "concept navigator". Use it to find words that fit the needs of whatever writing endeavor you've undertaken, or just to browse concept space. To use the system, enter one or two words into the boxes at the top of the page, select a function to perform, optionally select some word relations to allow, and click Submit Query! Here is a description of the seven functions that are available.

Connection: This option lets you find connections between two words, concepts, or people, even those that seem unrelated. Try entering a concept into each of the boxes in the first section, select some relations to allow, select the Connection function, and hit Submit Query. You may be surprised at the results!

Show related: This option shows you how a certain word is related to various other words in the dictionary. You only need to enter a word into the first box to use this option.

Show reachable: This option shows you words that are more distantly related to the first word. You can specify how distant by typing a different number into the box next to the Show reachable option.

Intersection: For this option you must enter two words. It finds words that are related to both. You can control how deeply the program searches for commonalities by typing a different number into the box next to the Show reachable option.

Rhyme coercion: If you're writing rhymed poetry, try entering two words that you wish to rhyme. Using the Rhyme coercion you can find words related to each words, respectively, that rhyme or sound alike.

Spell check and Substring: These options let you find words in the database that you don't know how to spell. The Spell check option finds words that are spelled similarly to the first word. The Substring option finds words that contain the first word.

Merriam Webster is proud to sponsor Word for the Wise, a popular radio program broadcast on public radio stations nationwide. The show offers a daily glimpse into the intriguing world of words and language. You can read transcripts of past shows from the months listed below and also listen to audio recordings of the program.

"Word for the Wise" is a two-minute radio show written and produced by Kathleen Taylor of WAMC, the National Public Radio affiliate in Albany, New York. The program explores one of America's favorite topics: the English language. How much language can you cover in two minutes? You'll be surprised.
Kathleen tells you fascinating, true stories about words (have you heard about the day baseball stopped the presses so that the term "designated hitter" could make it into the new dictionary?), and she debunks language myths (no, there is no evidence that the word "posh" originated as an acronym for "port out, starboard home," the supposed rule for selecting premier cabins on cruise ships).
Merriam-Webster editors help keep Kathleen on her toes, assisting her with research and offering her access to their wealth of resources and expertise. Transcripts and audio from previously broadcast programs can be found on our Web site.

Die Überschriften der Kolumnen sind etwas irreführend, da der Text nicht immer genau dieses Wort oder diese Redewendung behandelt. Meist ist es ein Wort, das mit der Überschrift in Zusammenhang steht. In einigen Fällen behandelt der Inhalt das Thema allerdings auch so allgemein, dass es zwar etwas mit "Sprache" aber nichts mehr mit Etymologie oder Wortgeschichten zu tun hat. Dennoch sind auch diese Kolumnen lesenswert.

Was man noch erwähnen sollte: Die Radio-Kolumnen sind auch als Audio-File (Real-Player-Format) verfügbar.

Die Radio-Kolumne "Word for the Wise" soll seit Januar 2002 bestehen. Das erste online dokumentierte "Word for the Wise", das ich im Archiv entdecken konnte ist vom 03. Februar 2003.

Warum gibt es das nicht für die deutsche Sprache? Ein hervorragendes Synomwörterbuch online. Es ist sogar noch besser als die gedruckte Ausgabe, denn es läßt sich im Volltext durchsuchen: Bei search the full text ein Suchwort eingeben. Dann erhält man nicht nur den Haupteintrag, sondern alle Einträge, in denen das Wort irgendwo vorkommt. Wem das zu viel ist: Das gesuchte Wort bei search headwords eingeben.
