Perhaps you meant:

Quiero cazo, pero no tengo las flechas.

(¿Es 'cazar' una palabra apta para 'hunt'?)

Also, is there a decent usage dictionary online? I have tried to start using the RAE dictionary to get the spanish-definitions for words, but I'd also like something that shows them in use.

Any foreign language forum such as Tomísimo can give usage examples

Lol, I was so interested in conjugating a new verb that I overlooked the fact that w/ quiero already conjugated, it needed the infinitive. Gracias.

I know forums can help (and believe me, I can't express how much I appreciate this one), but with forums you have to wait for a response. Besides, if I asked for usage examples of every word I looked up, Tomisimo would run out of server space.
