What dictionary sites do you use? They can't be worth very much if they don't have a word so common as that one. I recommend Jim Breen's WWWJDIC (link in my sig).
Worldlingo.com (not actually a dictionary site) seemed to have no trouble translating 説明 into "explanation" when I tried it. Are you sure you were using it correctly?
