e-dictionary or triditional dictionary?

When I need to find out what a word means I browse it on an e-dictionary. When it comes to foreign languages, when I need to translate a word, I go first to the classic book dictionary, and only if I can't find it there, I try translating it by an e-dictionary.

Hi,chenmeiyi.In my opinion,traditional dictionary is more useful if you want to write a paper but if you only want to find some words we use daily,I think just a e-dictionary is enough,after all,as you said e-dictionary is portable,light and more efficient than tradional dictionary.

I prefer the real paper dictionary, becasue I find the e-dictionary does not have all the words I use on it yet and the paper dictionary offers me more definitions that the internet one does not have yet.

Hi Though I have an e-dictionary, I like to use the traditional book dictionary. From my school days I am using the paper dictionary hence I feel it is more reliable. Some times I use the internet to check the meaning, synonyms etc.

You mean is english dictionary?I like the triditional dictionary,when i meet a strange word,i search it by e-dictionary,it's fast i find out the word,but i have less impress and i forget it soon,but when i use the triditional dictionary and i remember it secure,i just like this,other people may mostly like e-dictionary.

i have a dict. on my mobile phone..which i usually. sometimes i prefer the traditional dictionary.

I like to in through my traditional dictionary. I love that book. Even if i am online i tried to check it in my paper dictionary. I very crazy about that. I can take word in a fraction of seconds. My friends always mention about this skill.hehehe. Thanks

Since I spend my days sitting infront of my computer, I prefer my e-dictionaries, if I can find one. It's just too cumbersome to carry a real dicioary aroud. I'd raher just look one up on line.

I still like flipping pages while looking for words that I want to know if I am spelling right or searching for its meaning in case I encountered a new word in some way.. Pocket dictionaries don't use batteries would be the only thing that it has advantage of I guess compared with those e-dictionaries available..

I don't have an idea of what it goes for over there,if the price is not too bad,i will as well prefer it to the big paper directories.Getting out of fashion!

Hi dear u r right now u can get dictionaries, thesaures, and other things online so why go for paper dictionary i also use microsoft Word to get my spell check or synonmous Take care
