From MOT Dictio­nar­ies to Sanakirja.fi-service

The old service MOT Sanakirjasto/Online (i.e. MOT Dictio­nar­ies) will completely run down at the end of an ongoing year. You already have the access to its substi­tute called MOT Kielipalvelu/Sanakirja.fi >> https://www.karelia.finna.fi/Record/karelia.99789216105967. This service on the Sanakirja.fi plat­form includes tools famil­iar from the old MOT.

In addi­tion to dozens of dictio­nar­ies, MOT Kieli­palvelu contains MOT Trans­la­tor (trans­la­tions between 40 languages) as well as MOT Proof­ing (proof­read­ing and spell checker of English, Finnish, Swedish, German and French).
