I have been using this Dictionary for sometime now and it is proving more confusing than helpful. There are lots of strange signs such as wavey lines and if you look up one word it is followed by lots of other words that doesn't appear to relate to the word required . It may be useful in a classroom but not at home.

TheAromaofBooks I could be wrong because it's been a long while since I studied Spanish, but I think the wavy line represents the word you're looking up, because if the word appears in that context, the meaning is different. So even though “ya“ means “already“, “ya no“ means “no longer“ & “ya que“ means “now that, since, inasmuch.“ But I agree that it's important to find a dictionary that works for you!! 4y
Blueroseis Thank you. I'll try using it as you suggested to see if I get on any better. 4y
