The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. For example, if you type something like «longing for a time in the past», then the engine will return «nostalgia». The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it’s starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. So in a sense, this tool is a «search engine for words», or a sentence to word converter.

I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren’t included in thesauri. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. waves, sunsets, trees, etc.).

In case you didn’t notice, you can click on words in the search results and you’ll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource.

Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source code that was used in this project: Elastic Search, @HubSpot, WordNet, and @mongodb.

Hello everyone,

I’d like to wish someone «a nice lunch break», but having lived in the States and been gone for a long time, I wonder if there’s another way to say that in American English. Maybe just «Have a nice lunch / have a nice lunch time?» I don’t want to insist on the meal, but on the pause in his hard work.
Thank you!

    «Enjoy your lunch!» or even «Bon appetit!» since we use that in English. You would want to make sure the other understood, though.
    Since most people eat lunch at lunchbreak, I doubt you need say ‘lunchbreak’. It sounds strange.

    Thank you, I like «Enjoy your lunch», even if I DID want to insist on the free time around lunch time before getting back to work. But it’s not always easy to find a short way to convey what you mean.

    I don’t want to insist on the meal, but on the pause in his hard work.

    I agree. People don’t always eat during their «lunch break». Some of them exercise, or run errands, or do something else.

    As you know, many US jobs have 3 standard «breaks» (times when employees don’t work), called «the morning coffee break», «the lunch break», and «the afternoon coffee break». Those are just names for the breaks. Usually 2 are short (10-15 minutes). The long one (45-60 minutes) is called «the lunch break».

    I’d like to wish someone «a nice lunch break», but having lived in the States and been gone for a long time, I wonder if there’s another way to say that in American English.

    I don’t know any other terms for «lunch break». If I didn’t want to mention eating, I would say «Have a nice break.» or «Have a nice lunch break.»

    «Enjoy your lunch» is not limited to the food. It’s a reference to the break as much anything. It means «enjoy your time away from the office for lunch». It doesn’t really matter if you don’t eat.

    «Enjoy your lunch» is what I would say.

    It’s a reference to the break as much anything.

    Not for me. I would never say «Enjoy your lunch» to mean your «enjoy your break».
    To me «lunch» is food, and «lunchtime» and «lunch break» are time periods.

    But I am not disagreeing. I am just pointing out a difference between AE speakers.

    But when they leave the office you don’t know what their plans are. Unless you want to interrogate them («Are you planning to eat while you’re gone?») then «Enjoy your lunch» covers everything.
