[Transcriber's note: Spanish words defined in the extensive vocabulary section are surrounded by equal signs. This makes searching as easy as surrounding the word searched for with equal signs, or searching for the beginning of the word preceded by an equal sign. (i.e. find the definition of sabio by searching for =sabio= or =sab)]
