Whitaker's Words

If you need a quick definition of a Latin word, try Whitaker's Words. This little program's no-nonsense command-line interface may not be beautiful, but it is certainly fast and very useful. Words will even give you a morphological analysis of words you look up.

It is certainly not intended to be a replacement for a solid Latin dictionary like Lewis & Short, but is a great tool to help you work your way through a passage quickly.

...now if only there was something like this for Greek too!
