The words we are giving Igbo
The English dictionary — 45,328 words — laid open for translation. Search any word: see whether Igbo already has it, whether a coinage is being argued in the Forge, or whether no word has been recorded yet. The 193 terms from the sciences, mathematics, and social sciences are marked as priority gaps and shown first — the vocabulary a language most needs to think in the modern world.
Machine-drafted coinages are labelled where they exist and roll out from the back end over time; they are starting points, never answers. A guide to how the naming system works — so you can translate with your own AI — is on the way.
No terms match. This vocabulary is a seed — if a concept is missing, suggest it.
