The '''[[LSJ:GreekEnglishLexicon|Liddell, Scott, Jones Ancient Greek Lexicon (LSJ)]]''' is perhaps the best known Ancient  Greek-English dictionary. Here you can find a wiki implementation. 

The wikification of LSJ was no mean task but we hope that the extra features provided by the wiki set-up will enhance the user experience. Some of these features (like the [[Index:Contents|indexes]]) were made possible through the use of [[LSJ:About|Semantic Mediawiki]] extensions.

Different types of [[Help:Contents#Transliterations_and_forms|transliterations and word forms]] were used, so that everyone is happy: '''Ancient Greek scholars''', '''speakers of Modern Greek''', people who prefer '''transliterated Greek''' or [https://www.translatum.gr/converter/beta-code.htm Beta Code]. 

For example, you will get results on the search box no matter whether you type in '''polytonic Greek, monotonic Greek, Greek without any accents at all''', or '''transliterated Greek'''. You can even add a [[Help:Contents#Search_form_to_use_on_your_website|search form on your web site or a quick search link on your browser]].

Over time, the site was enriched with more content and languages as outlined below.
