There are many on-line dictionaries on the Internet: monolingual, bilingual, and even multilingual.

    <Paragraph position="2"> dictionaries. YourDictionary.com lists about five such dictionaries. Most of them are narrowdomain dictionaries. The Google directory3 lists seven dictionaries. Rjecnik.com4 is the oldest one in these language pairs and is still active and expanding. Tkusmic.com5 was created in 2003 and has a very similar interface. One of the most popular dictionaries is Krstarica.com6. A long list of dictionaries is given at Danko VSipka's web site.7 Many of those are not active any more, or they are textual dictionary files with a limited domain.</Paragraph>

    <Paragraph position="4"> The task of creating a Serbo-Croatian Word-Net is already underway within the Balkanet project (Christodoulakis, 2002).</Paragraph>
