any way like a LINK! Then after that page finally loads, you still have
to click again: either type in a term in the search box by <Término

tiny (and slow to load) letters of the alphabet under either <Diccionario
general> or <Diccionario Odontológico>: I think it's a diabolically
designed Spanish language Zen study in aggravation .. :-)
