Reverso launches synonyms app and service

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Language learning company Reverso is launching a new product on the web and mobile
Reverso Synonyms is a thesaurus service that lets you learn new words and improve your vocabulary.You may have found this feature in the
main Reverso translation app already
It lets you access related words directly from the translation app.But this was just a soft rollout, as the company is now expanding this
feature into a full-fledged service
You can type a word and get a bunch of synonyms
You get examples and you can load the word definition for more details
You can also tap on any word to double-check the meaning.But the service goes beyond that by offering slang translations and giving you
analogies for words with multiple meanings
There will be a premium subscription with additional features.Even more interesting than the product itself, Reverso came up with an
interesting way to build a huge database in no time
Given that the company has been working for years on translation dictionaries, the company tapped this data to create a basic version of
this new product.There are 2 billion bilingual dictionary entries in Reverso Context
If two words have the same translation in multiple languages, chances are that they mean the same thing
Of course, this data has been adjusted since then with a refined algorithm and some human curation.While Google Translate is still quite
dominant in the dictionary space, Reverso manages to attract tens of millions of users every month, generating 450 million page views on the
web alone
