I-XXIV -- The Reverse Dictionary -- -a -- -b -- -c -- -d -- -e -- -f -- -g -- -h -- -i -- -j -- -k -- -l -- -m -- -n -- -o -- -p -- -q -- -r -- -s -- -t -- -u -- -v -- -w -- -x- -- -y -- -z -- Abbreviations and symbols -- References -- Appendix 1: Spelling-to-sound correspondences -- Appendix 2: Sound-to-spelling correspondences
Summary: Rather than presenting a reverse list of words in endless sequence and strictly alphabetical order, this Reverse English Dictionary considers the structure and formation of words, grouping them together in sections and subdivisions. This way of looking at words from behind and comparing similar word endings reveals new and unaccustomed aspects of the structure of words and their formation, illustrating the enormous variety of the English language.
