hey guys, i hate knowing a definition to a word, but not actually knowing the word itself.

Is there something out on the internet that is like, the opposite of a dictionary, where i type in a definition of something, and the results will show the word im trying to find?
If somebody knows a website that does this, it would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

If you dont know the word originally, you cant go through synonyms.

After you find your word, it has links to the word in a plethora of dictionaries to make sure you got it right.
