Does anyone know of a website, or other service, where you can find out what meanings a word has in other languages?
I’m naming a site “muktum”, a gibberish word I just pulled out of the air. I googled it, and I don’t get any results besides usernames and other languages. I want to make sure it doesn’t mean anything silly or offensive.
And if anyone decides to develop a site based on this post, I want some money :lol:
Thanks

This website can tell you the meaning of any word in any language.
In all seriousness, that’s what I use for made up words (like, Erkana). I pulled it out of my ass, googled it. It means something in quite a few languages, so I just pick the meaning that most represents it’s usage.
For instance, it means free/unrestricted in Turkmen, and was the perfect meaning for ErkanaAuth.
