Are there any plans to expand into other languages, like ItalianDict, GermanDict, etc? I know it takes a lot of work to run a site (as well as this), but one can be hopeful, yes?

I think I am a real administrator so here goes, hehe.

This site had been up and running for ages until Christopher, the present owner, grabbed it by the throat and started trying to make it the best learning site on the web. I know that this continues to be work in progress with many alterations made over the last 3 + years and probably many more planned.

I also know that a site like this costs quite a bit of money to run and administer. Because of the ongoing improvement and cost implications, I am fairly confident that we will not be seeing any other LanguageDict in the very near future. If and when Christopher realises his dream with this site then who knows, he might well decide to embark on a new challenge.

I'm not an admin either but I think that's a really good question. That would also be really cool if there was other websites like GermanDict, ChineseDict, ItalianDict, RussianDict, etc.(: Though, I really hope a real administrator answers this question. -leenearene3

From a humble standpoint and nothing more....
This site was set up only for Spanish and as there are many other beautiful languages this site is only for Spanish. The love of the language, knowing the language, etc. are primary reasons to start a website like this. I would strongly suggest gathering like-minded people and start a website. I'm sure between Paralee, Heidi, Eddy, Marianne, Iza, Lazarus, Carlos and Mountaingirl they could or can give you some great advice to start a web for other lanugages. Not that they know how to speak it but to start it and maintain the day in and day out logistics. Just a thought, like I said at the beginning. wink

I'm not an admin but I have to say that ItalianDict would be amazing since I'm taking Italian and need help with homework.
