Title: Help on Using Crosswords for Learning English
Post by: thepda on December 15, 2022, 10:43:53 AM

Hi Cruciverb community! I've been a reader but this is my first time posting. Thanks for all of you who are here.

Excuse my English, I am a native spanish speaker and ESL. I have been using crosswords to help learn English.

Does anyone have any recommendations on crossword books or resources that help define the meaning of words within the croswords? Think someone getting help to educate themselves.

So far I have been using:
https://crossword-solver.io/ (https://crossword-solver.io/)
https://crosswordbrain.com/ (https://crosswordbrain.com/)

Crossword-Solver promotes some definitions of words but they aren't as helpful as a dictionary. Any guidance would be appreciated!

There are many other crossword sites you can use to improve your English like https://www.danword.com for example or you can try playing educational games here: https://www.merriam-webster.com/games. I really like them!

Hi,

You can also use CrosswordKing.com (https://crosswordking.com) for your specific request. They seem to be doing a great job at updating the site regularly.
