a. Some English language dictionaries you can turn to are, for instance, Longman, Oxford, Cambridge or Merriam-Webster. Go to a bookshop and have a look which one you prefer. b. A lot of dictionaries are available on the net. Go to "Your dictionary" (the URL is very easy to remember www.yourdictionary.com) and browse around. You'll find the most popular dictionaries as well as rhyming, synonyms etc. My favorite on the net is Cambridge. |
