Paul EgglestonMy wife has bought me a camouflage cover for my dictionary, which is just what I've always wanted. I want to thank her, but I can't find the words.
Fiona Grahame Orkney News LtdWe might now quickly look up a word in an online dictionary but nothing is so pleasing or informative than to possess a really good dictionary (or several) that you can leaf through. The very best of them include a history of the evolution of the word you are seeking. National Dictionary Day is held on the birthday of the founder of the American Dictionary, Noah Webster on 16th October 1758.
