Question by Todd M: Is there any online dictionary that shows the word being used in various sentences?
All the dictionaries I have found simply have a sentence describing the meaning of the word. And that makes sense, its quick and efficient.
But I was hoping to find an online dictionary that has various examples of the word being used in various sentences. Is there any such thing?
