When I was at secondary school I
remember a pile of 3.5 inch floppy disks taller than me sitting next to a
CD with the proud label, “all of these fit on a single CD”- free dictionary download. In that same
CD there was Encarta, the digital encyclopedia. It seemed impossible – it was like the whole breadth of human knowledge could fit on a flat piece of plastic.

Now, some years later, I take it for granted, and looking at Advanced English Dictionary I find myself thinking… “Yes, and?”, as I search for what else it does.
Its As easy as ABC
I can’t help but be dismayed by my own cynicism. For free, Advanced English Dictionary lets me download a vast, versatile English dictionary.
It’s filled with images to aid understanding/comprehension,
definitions, etymology, synonyms, and pronunciation in both US and UK
accents to aid with learning. free dictionary download
Each word has clickable links to others of interest to further aid
learning, while the relation button randomly takes you to other similar
words to give you an unending chain of interesting entries. If that isn’t enough you can access a word of the day, past searches, and favorites with ease.

The other huge issue is that the search function does require you to be able to spell the word.
It sounds like a small issue, but often when looking up a word my main
reason is to clarify spelling. Compare this to a Google search, which
will offer alternative (I mean correct ) spellings, as well as multiple
links to definitions.
On the plus side, Advanced English Dictionary is far better presented than the search engine alternative.
A simple tool
Advanced English Dictionary is perfectly functional and a great tool
if you can’t (or don’t) want to be connected to the internet while you
work - it just doesn't add anything to your world that the internet
doesn't already offer.
