Définition, traduction, prononciation, anagramme et synonyme sur le dictionnaire libre Wiktionnaire.

The Wiktionary counts a growing number of examples, added by a growing number of persons, from various sources. It is a specificity of this project not to have established a corpus from which the examples have to be extracted. Any kind of source is eligible, written or oral (but it has to be transcribed), literary or popular, novel or press, scientific literature or vulgar song (for vulgar words, of course). It is hard to mention here every one who perform this volunteer work, but still we have to name François GOGLINS who may have added half of the examples in French Wiktionary. By the way, he says that "the accumulation of examples enables to locate the use of a word in time, and especially to illustrate its use out of its usual language (more abstract or comparative)."
