Reasons to do the Wictionary an associative
 * At present the languages coexist almost independently. Amount of links between words of different languages is much less than amount of connections inside a language. Each language as though exists in its own plane presenting its own reflection of the world.

Creation of numerous links between languages will convert the structure of many parallel language planes to 3-dimensional structure which will be much richer than any individual language.


 * Associative dictionary helps to learn languages fast.


 * Common language helps different people to understand each other.


 * Gives new opportunities for creative work. This is like poetry using not one but many languages. It also can be considered as a multilingual game.


 * Will help to save weak languages connecting them to stronger ones.

Development of associative Wictionary requires participation of many people speaking in different languages.
