Adding a misogynist slur to the $#*!tionary, declaring Women are a danger to Men, is ludicrous. Insulting and abusive to Women. Adds to the danger Women face from allowing Men into Women's facilities.

I'm a writer
April 3, 2012

I'm a writer. That doesn't mean I know every word there is to know or that I am perfect at grammar. It just means I like to write enough that if ever a job were presented to me to write for a living, I might actually love my job to death.

With that said, Dictionary.com is a website I go to for words. I love it. I have the app. I read the word of the day. I have a favorites list going. I know there are other ones out there, but for me the site is easy to read. I see the word that I want defined. I see the definition. I don't have to decipher anything. It's a quick look.

I also love that I can click on words I don't know in the definition of the word I was looking up and it will bring me to the definition of that word.

The more I write (and I've written for ages) the more I love words. It's hard to get new words into conversation circulation, but with the dictionary.com app and easy read website I can quickly reference and remind myself what a word means and hopefully expand my vocabulary more.

I agree that their hot word blog is awesome.

The Thesaurus is a great source to help me not to over use terms like GREAT and AWESOME or PATHETIC and SUCK when writing reviews.

I wish Word of the Day would stop with the political agenda. Can we please simply have random, interesting words? 'Flubdub?'... desperate, boring and just one example of the daily riffraff.

Not much to say about it. It is a dictionary, has all the words and all. I have no complains so I give is four stars since it saves me the money to buy a new dictionary and time to look up a word.
