Great dictionary with lots of other stuff.

I use the app on all my devices. I even got the Lookup Assistant for my PC. AFAIK, the dictionary has not been corrupted, i.e., word meanings were not changed to appease today’s corrupt & debased culture. And this app comes with a lot of added features which is informational and fun.

Excellent

Yes, it’s as good as the 5 star reviewers are reporting. I’ve used many and this is easily the best. Enjoy.

Excellent source of knowledge.

I love the app by Yale. It’s information is solid and it’s easy to use, and I’ve learned so much from using it, and I use it almost everyday.

THE Best Dictionary App for Mac

I'm always looking for best-of-breed apps for any platform I'm working on—as long as it's not unreasonably expensive. DIctionary and Thesaurus Pro is abosoluty the best I could find for mere pennies compared to what you're getting. They have a free version as as well but I wanted to support this excellent dictionary app so it doesn't disappear. And thanks again for dark mode! 🥳

THE reference ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My go-to. Used daily

Tried the others: waste of time, space, bandwidth. THIS. Shows Wikipedia articles where needed. Etymologies for word geeks. Great thesaurus for writers. No stone left unturned.

Look no further

This app, and their website, is far superior to any other dictionary app. Hands down. I’m sad I wasted so much time bothering with Dictionary.com or Mirram-Webster. I’ll never understand why those two are always so recommended. Especially dictionary.com (smh). There are a few things that make this app essential for me, and why I think the others fall short. In order to help you better understand the full meaning of a word, this app gives you SEVERAL examples of using a word in a sentence, rather than just one. Second, it gives examples of WAYS the word can be used. I wish I could better explain what I mean by this but the app can only make a person so smart. Third, and my most favorite thing ever!! When you search a word in the thesaurus, the synonyms are sorted into categories (not the right word but it’s all I can think of) regarding what you’re trying to convey! Just try it and you’ll know what I mean. And you’ll understand why the is the MUST HAVE dictionary app.
