Why Redefyne?

  • The Inspiration

    Dictionary words can be tricky! They don't always tell us how to use them in real life. That's why this site exists, it's a place where you can find simple ways to understand words practically. It was inspired from a cool lesson from a smart guy named Alex Hormozi. He said we should define things by what we have to do, and life will be simpler. Therefore, I invented the Operationary (aka Redefyne). It is filled with simple definitions of words based on what to do. It's open source and is open to contributions edits and more. A new word is added everyday, and you can see them and other updates on the telegram channel.

  • Search

    You can freely search in this directory for words and see how to operationalize them (No cost, no daily limit, no BS). There's also a browse feature for viewing words under each alphabet. You can submit definitions, edits, recieve updates and much more on the telegram channel.

  • Share

    Feel free to share definitions, word of the day, etc with people to help the Operationary get more exposure. You can also get the definitions printed on merch and delivered to you.
