About Ensyns

What is this? / How to use

Ensyns is tool for finding the right words. It provides synonyms (a synonym is another word for "another word for") and words that are otherwise related to your search term: words that have broader or narrowing meaning, opposites, translations into other languages (for now only Dutch and Polish) and more.

Since Ensyns only just has been released, it is still a bit rough around the edges. We're still working on improving it. Most importantly word translations for a lot more languages will be added.
