I was trying to find the webster dictionary in the mall last 2 days.But i can't find the good one that is complete dictionary meaning.
So i don't have chance to goo other place so what i did i bought it the 2 small book dictionary.
The one is essay to access English dictionary Edited by J.A Underhill.35 pesos
The next one is Webster's concise English Dictionary Edited by Jennifer maglonzo. 185 pesos.
But all this 2 are not complete and i am not satisfied with it.. i regret because i i wish i bought the nice complete one and good to use.
Maybe i will try to find other one next time the big one and complete meaning.

You can just buy/download a dictionary app for your cellphone. It's cheaper. =) Or just use the internet to look for word meanings.

You may be able to order it online, either through their website or through another. You could try that, or you could possibly just use the internet. The internet is vast with many dictionarys. Would you need this dictionary for school?

try oxford dictionary, or longmans dictionary. i am now using an electronic dictionary, Speaking Frankling'Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary, it has over 200,000 words and 500,000 words thesaurus. Now the new ones, has more words, i have this for about 8 years now. I think have this electronic dictionary at national bookstore.

Hello! No dictionary is complete with all the words. Because you bought small books, it is expected that they contain lesser information than the big ones.
You may want to use Merriam Webster. It also has an updated words and slang. If you're interested, check http://www.merriam-webster.com/ .

Hi...It is true expensive the big one but it is useful though.Not like the small one,not complete and the big one is more okay and can find some good things there.And you will learn also finding meaning.

Wiy not make use of the online dictionary. It is free. I love Longman dictionary. It is online as well. You can also buy dictionary ebooks. Just check at mobipocket.com.

Sorry to tell you my point of view about your opinion. I personally think now absurd to buy paper books such as dictionaries when practically every information is available on the web. This involves first of all a considerable reduction in the consumption of paper. For example, for years I did not consult more a paper dictionary, as I find on wikipedia example, practically any information that I want. That said, everyone has their own preferences.
