Liddell & Scott

Liddell and Scott's Greek-English Lexicon (1940)

For most purposes, this separate database for a single dictionary should now be obsolete. You can consult all these resources together in Logeion, which contains copies of the dictionaries that are more frequently updated, and more besides: the DGE and DuCange accompany LSJ and Lewis & Short, and you will also find frequency data, collocations, and examples from the corpus. Click the link here to see the entry for λόγος. There is even an app for your phone! The options offered below are useful if instead of searching for particular entries (the normal mode of using a dictionary), you want to search the full text.

Search dictionary headwords
Search for headwords containing:
Select a Search Option:	Exact match
	String searching

By default, headword results include all headwords containing the string you entered. Entering φέρω will return φέρω but also ἀναφέρω, διαφέρω, etc.
Use the ^ sign to match the beginning of words: ^φέρ will only return words starting in φέρ-, not, e.g., ἀναφέρω
Use the $ sign to match the end of words: έρω$ will only return words ending in -έρω, not, e.g., γέρων or κέρως

Search the full text for:	(e.g., Olbia, or by lot or τύχ*)
	Similar Word Search

Select a Search Option:	Single Term and Phrase Search (default) Proximity Searching in the same Sentence or in the same Paragraph

By default, full-text results include only words exactly matching the string you entered. Entering φέρω will only return φέρω
The asterisk is a wildcard character (ἔργ* retrieves any words starting in ἔργ-: ἔργα, ἔργανα, ἔργον, ἔργου, etc.).
'Similar word' search finds similar words if the word entered is longer than five characters. Your mileage may vary!
