Do you know that visitor counter widget built into webpages that tells you how many visits the website has had? That counter on one of our favourite “tea break websites” says thirteen million. Wait, no. It’s thirteen billion. 13,645,024,327 visits since the website was launched...

In our current 21^st century reality that number should suggest that the website is full of click bait videos, sensational and shocking content with questionable credibility.

This mysterious website is a wonderful exception .

It offers you something new, useful and interesting every day, if you are an enthusiastic language learner or language user.

On the opening page you find a new entry in the categories below EVERY DAY:
Word of the day;
Daily grammar lesson;
Today’s birthday;
Article of the day;
Quotation of the day;
This day in history;
Today’s holiday;
The Free Dictionary blog;
Live searches database;
Idiom of the day;
and language forum;

And for those who have literally one minute to check in, it offers daily 1-minute games: hangman, grammar quiz, spelling bee, matchup and wordhub.
