Hi egary,
This reference article explains the new wildcard search feature. Basically, in the dictionary search box (at the top of this page, with the TRANSLATE button), just put a * where you want to allow any characters. For instance:
"*ing" returns:
- morning
- bring
- going
- amaznig
- anything
- camping
- parking
- smoking
- jogging
- footing
It's not working perfectly at the moment, but that should be fixed soon enough....

It seems to work great if I put in three letters, e.g., "hab*" but not if I put more, e.g. "habl" - --Mariana--, AGO 25, 2009
