A New Kasem Dictionary

The Kasem Dictionary now looks like the rest of Indigen World. Same reviewed words, same search, same saved list, in the deep navy and electric blue of indigenworld.com.

What changed

Until today the dictionary wore the older gold-and-cream palette, while the website had moved on. Opening one from the other felt like switching products. The dictionary now shares the website's visual language:

• A floating glass header over a deep blue masthead, the same one you see on the indigenworld.com homepage.
• A search field that sits in the masthead, so the first thing on the page is the thing you came to do.
• White word cards on a soft blue-white ground, with the selected word outlined in blue.
• Entry pages with clearer section labels for pronunciation, examples, usage and source.

Looking up a word

Type a Kasem or an English word into the search field. Results narrow as you type, and you can also browse by first letter, including Ɔ. Pick a word to see its meaning, pronunciation, an example in context and where the entry came from.

What stays the same

This release is about how the dictionary looks, not what it contains. The dictionary still shows only entries that have been reviewed and published. There were 329 of them when this post was written, and the list updates live as more are approved.
