Notice

We are continuing to rebuild and update the server application, ling.surf, on which our dictionaries and databanks (Bank of Canadian English) run.

DCHP-2 and DCHP-1 Online are now available on a temporary web server. All features are available while we work on a replacement client application, but we recommend that you do not bookmark any entries on the temporary web server, as URLs will change in the near future.

We expect to have a newly revamped site, including a mobile-friendly website, with the tried-and-tested content, ready by mid-2024. We apologize for the inconvenience.
