One thought, different forms

From lookup
to understanding.

When an entry includes related forms or usage notes, you can see the connections without piecing them together yourself. Then head to the Phrasebook for a useful expression or Grammar Center for the pattern behind it.

Entry details and translation support vary by word, language, and device.
