My wife has reentered college, and desperately needed a dictionary. She is wearing the pages out on this one, and uses the CD version quite frequently, especially the links to other types of reference, such as the thesaurus and the encyclopedia. Highly recommended reference that is a must have.             Merriam-Websters Elementary Dictionary8 reviews Merriam-Webster Merriam-Webster, 2000 Excellent study aid for lower grades! I purchased hard cover Merriam-Webster's Elementary Dictionary for each one of my First Grade Class to give at the end of the school year as a special prize.

Each one could also read the description of the birds pictured. This is a very complete, well ...             The Merriam-Webster Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms (Dictionary)9 reviews Merriam-Webster, 1994 Handy Book for Vocabulary Reference The Merriam-Webster Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms is an interesting research - and I dare to say: entertaining - resource. Because, contrary to what some might think, this is not a thesaurus, but a book which groups words of similar meanings into a topic and explains in a very didactic way and with examples what distinguishes in nuance one from each other so you can use the most appropriate ...             Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 11th Edition (Red Kivar Binding with Jacket)79 reviews Merriam-Webster Merriam-Webster, 2003 Merriam Websters Collegiate Dictionary It pays to buy the 'real thing' and not paperbacks and school district and college 'throw aways' whose versions of the English langage were okay fifty years ago but, not now?

ISBN-10:0-87779-636-X (pbk.:alk. paper) I rate this particular edition 5* because of its handiness and inclusion of almost every word I would use, from academic writing to casual letters. The 8.3 x 5.8 x 1.6 size suits my taste for such a reference. It is not too heavy to carry around; the print is perfectly sized for me, whereas the print of the "typical" paperback book-size dictionary seems too small. I think this edition's ease of ...             Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Thesaurus14 reviews Merriam-Webster, 1995 A good investment This thesaurus is very helpful. You will be able to find the word you're looking for about 8-9 times out of 10, which is not bad at all. I am an English major and therefore use my thesaurus quite often and I give it a thumbs up. The price is reasonable. The look is professional. It's a great buy!             Merriam-Webster's Dictionary of English Usage27 reviews Merriam-Webster Merriam-Webster, 1994 One of the best books on the English language One thing needs to be clear before you buy this book: it is a dictionary, not a book of grammatical rules. That is, it is much more of a descriptive work than a prescriptive one. A lot of the reviewers here seem to take that to mean that it advocates some sort of linguistic anarchy, but what it really does is inform readers about the different aspects of various usage issues so that they can make ...             Merriam-Webster's Geographical Dictionary, Third Edition12 reviews Merriam-Webster, 2007 Like a Steady, Reliable Friend.

It is a great help and so easy to use.             Merriam-Webster's Notebook Atlas1 review Merriam-Webster, 1999 Essential for traveling I have traveled to 25 countries and always take this with me. It is very compact and light. It holds up well when traveling sometimes in the worst of conditions. Most of the maps are two pages and they fold together nicely.

He is in 5th grade, and this dictionary has proven to be a very valuable resource. The definitions are clear and concise.
