Which English Dictionary You Use ?

[Rosa]

I use two dictionaries when I read or write. The Oxford and Collins. It so happens that the Collins is a pocket dictionary and so it gets used more than the Oxford which I'd prefer to use .

I use Collins Gem English Dictionary, it's just a small dictionary, and I've had it with me since I was 10 years old, since we were required to have it at school. Until now I still use it eventhough it's worn out, like the pages are disintegrating already, lol.

I mostly relied on the Oxford dictionary because it has detailed explanations of words. I've been using it for as far as I can remember. But nowadays, there are so many online dictionaries I don't use it as much anymore. I now always refer the thefreedictionary for meanings and thesaurus.

I depend on the Free Online Dictionary when I'm online, but when I'm offline, I use the Oxford Dictionary. Having said that, I must state that I seldom, if ever, use a physical hard copy dictionary. It is simply too cumbersome to do so in the technological era. It all boils down to convenience.

I have been using Oxford Dictionary since I was very little. Its printed every year by the Oxford University Press in England. I like it because it gives very concise meanings of the most difficult of words. It also has the reputation of being one of the best in the world.

For the app, I use wordweb because I find it easy and simple. But I have a hard copy of the Oxford dictionary which I rely more on. Plus I like to physically hold a dictionary because it makes me feel more important.

The Sage. I don't think it's that popular but is definitely one of the best digital dictionaries. Actually, I found it when I was searching a thesaurus. It's a combo: dictionary and thesaurus.

It's free so if you any of you guys want to see for yourselves if it's any good, you can download it here:

I always stick with Oxford, either hard copy or as online reference. I don't think I will switch to any other anytime soon.

I use Mirriam and Webster. I also love using Thesaurus lately to see other words related to a word I'm looking for. I'm a writer so this one helps me a lot.

Let`s make this thread alive again!

In addition to dictionaries, I would advise using the unit converter as it is known that there are different meanings everywhere. Therefore, it is important to use such tools when learning the language as well.
