Merrian-Websters Dictionary

Super great for my grandson when he is doing his homework. Really helps alot.

great for students

This a great resource for students( or anyone else, but students will get the most out of it). My mom had the 8th version or so in about 1995. The CD is great to quickly look up words and you can incorporate it into word processing programs like microsoft word.

The Best on the Market

Nobody puts out a better dictionary than Merriam-Webster. The Collegiate is my pick because one of my hobbies is the Over-50 Spelling Bee, and this dictionary is the reference source for that competition. The Elementary edition is what I use in my classroom. The Unabridged is what I subscribe to on the Web. I wouldn't buy any other company's dictionary because this book and its publisher can trace their roots back to the original Noah Webster who first recognized the uniqueness of American English.

Indexing

The dictionary is a good one as usual. The index tabs are not exactly where they should be. Maybe they can not fix it because of limited space. Maybe Amazon can ask them.

Dictionary

We needed this for our 7th grader's reading class. It had to be this name brand and we decided to use the online option to buy it since it is cheaper than the stores were in our area.
