Editorial Review:

This hardcover version of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Eleventh Edition, is jacketed, has a navy kivar binding, and is plain-edged (no thumb indexing). For this new edition, America's largest staff of lexicographers made more than 100,000 changes and added more than 10,000 new words and senses, such as 'convergence', 'Frankenfood', 'phat', 'psyops, and 'vermiculture'. The Eleventh Edition also features over 40,000 usage examples - more than ever before - which clarify confused or disputed terms. Additionally, thousands of phrases and idioms help distinguish vocabulary for language learners. Special sections include A Handbook of Style, An Essay on the English Language, and Signs and Symbols. Over 55 million copies of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary have been sold, spanning a time period of over 100 years.

Customer Reviews:

Avg. Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0

A great gift:

This was given as a wedding gift along with the Webster's Thesaurus It is a reliable resource for two students setting up housekeeping.

Merriam -Webster's Collegiate Dictionary:

I recent perchased this dictionary and found it is almost impossible to read. I then had to get a magnifying glass to see the smallest print letters I had ever seen. Everyone has this problem in my house not just people who wear eyeglasses. I think this is a huge drawback that I have seen. So I don't know if the definitions are good or not yet. I think I will have to get a paperback and try my luck with a less heavy book to carry around as well.

What's it for?:

Of the first seven (non-technical) words I searched for in this dictionary, six were absent. Also, there are no word derivations. Simply awful.

Don't buy for Kindle PC until it has a search feature.:

This product is USELESS on Kindle for PC as it is. No way to search for a word. No index.
