under the input line. It is possible to retrieve a translation or explanation for word
forms entered in the input line. The source word entry for the requested word will
be displayed. For example, if you enter "rains" and there is not such an entry in the
dictionary, you will get the "rain" entry, as it is the headword for "rains". The
MorphoFinder™ function helps you find source words (headwords) of English past
participles, gerunds, plural forms, and of Spanish forms of various parts of speech.
