Editorial policy

Accuracy: meanings, pronunciation and word forms are checked before publishing. We never invent word origins or quotations.

Neutral on sensitive words: political, social and religious words are explained fairly, with the main ways people use them.

Professional terms: legal, financial and medical words are explained for general understanding and are not advice for your own situation.

Corrections: write to us and we fix errors quickly.

Ads are labelled and never change what a page says.
