Multiword Search

You can enter multiple words in the search box. Antidote will display all the links between these words, for example, the expressions or combinations they form together, the words or phrases with which they are synonyms together, or the definitions in which they appear together.

If the words form an exact expression (e.g., round table), Antidote will directly display the definition of the phrase. To get multiword results instead, choose the item identified by “multiword” at the bottom of the instant search menu.
