Default Re: good on line dictionaries

I use OneLook as well, but for examples and usage, I think this site is brilliant: [DAVIES/BYU] British National Corpus
To test it, enter interested in the search box then choose prep.ALL in the Insert Tag box. You have now chosen to search the database for your word + any preposition. Try it and let me know what you think.
