Words Create Thoughts

Instead of social media, I scroll through this app. It’s like poetry.

A brilliant resource - thank you for making this free

Should be required for every student of the English language.

Just missing a glossary!

My favorite part about this dictionary is how detailed the etymological records are but I frequently run into moments where I don’t understand the codes! And in my favorite dictionary, it would be amazing to have a “how to read this dictionary” section. Please? 🥹🙏🏽✨

Rich, Traditional, NOT Woke!

A rich, beautiful, elegant and traditional English dictionary, that avoids and ignores wokeisms. A treasure of a dictionary that I pray remains supported.

The perfect pocket dictionary

Handsomely printed, skillfully bound, thorough little volume. (That is, digitally printed and digitally bound.)
💯👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
