Must Have!

Hard cover MW Collegiate Dictionary was at the top of my wish list. I am so glad to have a MWCD with CD-ROM and Online Subscription. Wherever you go it is there for you!

A worthwhile purchase

I have been using this dictionary for many years. I have gone through a few editions. A couple of weeks ago I was looking for a word that this dictionary did not contain. I decided that it was time for a change. I purchased The New Oxford American Dictionary.

I found out that there are features that this dictionary has that The New Oxford American Dictionary, Second Edition does not contain. First of all, the thumb tabs are quite helpful and time saving. Next, would be the word origins, country and languages when applicable, and year that it actually became a word. Followed by the pronunciation keys and parts of speech. In some cases, they also have word variations.

The only reason that I had bought the Oxford one was because this dictionary has words missing that I feel should be included. If a larger more updated version of this becomes available, I will be happy to purchase it.

Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 11th Edition

Excellent reference book that I use on a daily basis. Spell Check on my computer doesn't always have the answers to my horrific spelling ability. So having this reference book along with the Spell Check on my computer I can actually write an email, letter or report and impress everyone without looking like I have the worst spelling abilities this side of the Mississippi !!! LOL I should have purchased this book along time ago and now that I have I really have no idea what I did without this reference book all this time !!!

Dictionary

Really good to have. The computer isn't always as handy as a book

Half a loaf is better than none.

The paper half of this package is a good dictionary, but the computer program is a little quirky. The online ebook version is both better and free. On the other hand the free online version does not come with a printed version, and Amazon doesn't sell it either.
