Welcome to the English language Wiktionary, a collaborative project to produce a free-content multilingual dictionary.

Designed as the lexical companion to Wikipedia, the encyclopaedia project, Wiktionary has grown beyond a standard dictionary and now includes a thesaurus, a rhyme guide, phrase books, language statistics and extensive appendices. We aim to include not only the definition of a word, but also enough information to really understand it. Thus etymologies, pronunciations, sample quotations, synonyms, antonyms and translations are included.

Wiktionary is a wiki, which means that you can edit it, and all the content is dual-licensed under both the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License as well as the GNU Free Documentation License. Before you contribute, you may wish to read through some of our Help pages, and bear in mind that we do things quite differently from other wikis. In particular we have strict layout conventions and inclusion criteria. Learn how to start a page, how to edit entries, experiment in the sandbox and visit our Community Portal to see how you can participate in the development of Wiktionary.

what's your poison phrase
(originally US, idiomatic, humorous, informal, dated) Used to ask someone what alcoholic beverage they would like to drink: what drink would you like to have? Today is celebrated by some people as World Cocktail Day. On this day in 1806, the American journalist Harry Croswell, the editor of the Balance and Columbian Repository, defined a cocktail in his newspaper as “a stimulating liquor, composed of spirits of any kind, sugar, water, and bitters”.
