Question ID: 580399
I'm looking for a list of English language dictionary-listed
adjectives that end in "-esque". For example, "picturesque",
"statuesque", "grotesque". A web page that lists these would be ideal;
failing that, a decent-sized list (say ten or more) of these words
culled from multiple sources would be fine. If there aren't ten, then
as many as you can find.

Thank you!

Hello porkribs-ga,

What a fun! I love playing with words. Thank you for posting this
question to my attention. My colleague Crabcakes-ga provided me with
the One Look tool. The Crossword Buddy tool is very similar.

Enjoy!

Excellent! I'd searched for "esque" pages and didn't find much, but
didn't know of any of the tools you pointed to! Thank you, and again,
my apologies for the confusion on the other question. Let's do
business again... ;)
