Etymologue

Word origins you can walk forwards as well as back

Wiktionary knows where words come from but buries it in prose. Etymologue pulls the graph out and lets you move around in it: 396,192 English words, 722,472 lexemes, 3,025 languages, 240,011 links between them. Pick an origin language and see everything English took from it; open a Latin root and walk forward to its descendants rather than backward to its parents. That reverse direction is the part no dictionary gives you.
