A thesaurus answers a question. Dendril invites you to wander. Start with any word or root, and explore an interactive map of its synonyms, related words, and etymology—and the relationships between them. Filter the map by part of speech, keeping "train" (the railroad kind) apart from "train" (the athletic kind). Dig into etymology and discover that "companion" comes from sharing bread, or that "muscle" means "little mouse". Fast, free, and runs entirely in your browser. No signup required.
Have you ever gone to Wikipedia instead of a thesaurus, just to wander through words (what relates to a tundra?)? Have you ever started from a word root, just to see where it takes you (where does genos lead?)? Has a wall of search results ever turned your curiosity into scrolling fatigue?
If any of that sounds like you, I'd love to know what you think of Dendril — because I built it for you!
Does the etymology data cover other languages too, or is it strictly English to English? Curious if I can trace a word back through Latin or Greek roots from the same map.
@sisli70246 Right now it is just English, but multi-language is the next big feature item on the road map.
