The King’s Language

Oxford Dictionaries & Thesaurus’ have been my staple since primary school when my late father was training me to articulate myself. I’m pleased to have this edition as a companion over three decades later.

Worth Every Single Penny

The OED is the definitive dictionary & thesaurus of the English lexicon and as such no other product can realistically compare.

Whilst the App does not have the complete set of functions that are available on the OED website the ability to download the individual language dictionaries is invaluable.

The price is justified for the OED alone, the additional dictionaries are however extremely handy, and would be of assistance to any budding polyglot.

[Though for anyone taking their studies academically I would recommend always checking for the definitive dictionary of each language you are studying.]

Quick understanding

Come on!!!!

I wonder why is it so hard to find a perfect dictionary online? When I go into it, it tells me to spend money on it. I’m just so young. Every E - dictionary does that. i’d rather go and buy a book.📕 I do think that you can improve, I do respect how you made it, it must be a hard work.😓
