 Rating:  - complete, dependable solid reference sourceI found this dictionary to be complete...dependable I wish the print was larger, but it may be out in large print as well.

Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 11th Edition (Red Kivar Binding with Jacket) Rating: - Dictionary - Essential in the houseThis is a wonderful item for any household to have to increase knowledge and settle conflicts, if you know what I mean. My dictionary has been the final "word" when disagreements arise. This one is a good edition. Rating: - AmazingThis monstrosity of a dictionary weighs 3 lbs but for a good reason. It's the most comprehensive book I've ever seen, I haven't to date come across a word that hasn't been in it and the definitions are very articulate. The book even includes several pages explaining all the abbreviations and how to interpret the pronunciations. By far the best dictionary I've ever come across and worth it to someone looking for their first and last dictionary in this life time. |
