In respect of on-line dictionaries, no-one yet has mentioned the
CELEX project at the University of Nijmegen/Max-Planck Institute Nijmegen.
To quote from the CELEX newsletter 1 (Dec 86):

The lexical database is intended to contain the following information
at the end of the first stage, both for Dutch and for English:
   - orthographic information: graphemes, hyphenations, spelling and
      form variants, accents, etc.
   - phonological information: phonemes, allophones, syllable structure,
     primary and secondary stress, points of isolation
   - morphological information: hierarchical decomposition into free and
     bound morphemes, inflectional paradigms, morphemic relations, etc.
   - syntactic information: grammatical word class, grammatical valence
     (argumant structure, transitivity), inflectional attributes, etc.
   - frequency information: per wordform, lemma, morpheme, etc. based on
     recent and representative text corpora.

I believe this lexicon is intended to be accessible at some cost, but
whether it will be accessible to non-Dutch researchers I do not know.
Information can be obtained from celex@hnympi52.earn (I guess .bitnet
is a synonymn for .earn).

Magic is just advanced technology ... so is intelligence.  Before computers,
the ability to do arithmetic was proof of intelligence.  What proves
intelligence now?
