Title: Online Japanese Dictionary
Body: A user of the Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum recently suggested the following dictionary site: I sometimes need to look up the correct spelling of foreign words that have been adopted into Japanese. As a non-native speaker of Japanese, I find it difficult to guess how a loan word is spelled in Katakana. I've been using http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/wwwjdic_g.html for a while now and find it really useful. You can look up Japanese words in Hiragana, Katakana or Kanji. The dictionary works from English to Japanese and Japanese to English. LLTI-Editor. #8453 Japanese Spelling. Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum listserv (LLTI@LISTSERV.DARTMOUTH.EDU, 5 Feb 2007).
