Free Online Dictionary

Still remember when I was a student long ago, we'd to use dictionary "book" to find our strange words. Open page by page, searching with alphabets, until we reached the final word. And, most of the times, we would encounter another one or few more unknown meaning words in the explanation contents for the initial word. Then, we'd to keep going the same process again, until we're tired with the game. However, we might already forget the meaning of the initial word we had managed to search out just now, then we've to researching again. That's really annoying, and the more killing was, you have to bring a long this thick giant mute "teacher" to school, library or tuition class. Nevertheless, teachers used to say this is the best way of learning. Well, I agree.

Nowadays, things had changed. When digital dictionary had flown into the market, learning has became more and more easy. You no need to bring along the old thick giant mute "teacher" when reading paper, nor forcing to memorise a word you'd came across on the street and check it back later with dictionary at home. All you need to have is a small digital component, you can carry to wherever you go easily. It's quite welcome and sound like a compass to people who are travelling in foreign countries.
