| Dictionaries listed must be digitalised so that can be searched by queries.

| If a database is used by several dictionaries, only one will appear on the list, other ones are below the main list.

| If a database on a website is from elsewhere, then this database will not be taken into consideration. If a dictionary doesn't mention its source and the source turns out to be from elsewhere, possibly involving plagiarism, then this site will not be mentioned.

| Dictionaries with API support are marked with [API]; dictionaries available for offline use (document, webpage, program, database) are marked separately with [offl.d], [offl.w], [offl.p], [offl.db]; dictionaries in public domain (50 years after the last author's death on this page, more information [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries%27_copyright_lengths here]) are marked with [PD]; dictionaries under public licenses are marked with [PL].
