## What is Dictionnaire?

A go-to reference among French dictionaries: the TLFi.

All you need is an internet connection to look up a word's definition, etymology, synonyms, antonyms, and morphology, or a verb's conjugation.

The Trésor de la langue française informatisé (TLFi) is the digitized version of a sixteen-volume dictionary, with 270,000 definitions and 430,000 examples drawn from French literature. It's a resource as valuable to students and translators as to anyone simply curious about words.

The TLFi also integrates with your system: look up a word with Spotlight, or check its definition from any app by selecting it and tapping "Share…".

## Key features

- Consult TLFi online French dictionary
- View definitions
- Explore etymology
- Find synonyms and antonyms
- Search via Spotlight
- Share words from other apps

### 5/5 — Très bien

*2026-07-02*

C’est ce qu’on recherche pour le français ! Merci

### 4/5 — Dictionnaire complet mais capricieux

*2026-04-11*

Je travaille presque tous les jours avec ce dictionnaire, qui est extrêmement complet (étymologie, synonymie, antonymie, etc.). Je ne lui donne pas cinq étoiles simplement du fait qu’il arrive fréquemment, même avec une excellente connexion internet, qu’il y ait un des problèmes d’accès aux serveurs. Cela peut être un peu frustrant lorsqu’on est en plein travail et qu’on a besoin d’avoir une réponse immédiate. Autrement, c’est un excellent outil.

### 4/5 — Mise à jour SVP!!

*2026-02-04*

Bonne application, parfois instable, j'aimerais une icône pour le mode sombre.

### 5/5 — Bel outil

*2025-07-03*

C’est une belle ressource dont j’aurais des difficultés à me passer

### 4/5 — Good but we need share function fixed

*2025-02-13*

I don’t know it’s for the iOS version or something else, but whenever I click on share button, the app just crash out. We need that to be fixed. What else, as a dictionary app we want the option of download dictionary files to the device, saving the effort of downloading entries every time we search. It may cost seconds to get a item fully loaded.

### 5/5 — Meilleur dictionnaire français littéraire du monde

*2025-02-10*

Quel bonheur d’avoir accès à une telle richesse dans sa poche pour un prix dérisoire. Merci infiniment au développeur .

### 1/5 — Indisponible

*2025-01-16*

Ce APP est compréhensible et utilisant mais il est toujours indisponible. Je ne peux pas avoir une connexion au CNRTL!

### 5/5 — Excellent.

*2024-12-10*

Utile. Pratique. Roule bien. Recherches rapides. Pages très claires. Même les longues entrées se consultent rapidement et sont faciles à lire.

### 2/5 — moyen

*2024-11-24*

Instable

### 5/5 — Formidable MAIS…

*2024-09-05*

… impossible de partager une page (mail, sms…) si ce n’est en prenant une photo. La possibilité SEMBLE exister mais ne mène nulle part. Autrement vraiment formidable comme ressource !
Aussi une manière simple de donner des « feedback.»
