Hello there EJ,

First, check out our glossary page on antonyms, which contains some examples: http://www.usingenglish.com/glossary/antonym.html

I had a quick search for you, and came up with a couple of online dictionaries that give antonyms:

http://www.synonym.com/

http://vancouver-webpages.com/wordnet/

http://thesaurus.reference.com/

And if you want to look for more dictionaries that I have missed out, here is a great place to find them:

http://www.yourdictionary.com/diction1.html

I hope these help, and if you need any further help or advice, please feel free to ask!

Regards,

Is that BE? (In AE we would say I did a quick search.)

We could use both. Red is correct in BE, implying that he did more than one search.
