Dictionaries -- Recommendation Plz.

<p>Should I buy The American Heritage College Dictionary or the Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary? Which ones better? or both?</p>

<p>webster's.</p>

<p>if you take latin get american heritage; it's god</p>

<p>Are these digital or book versions?</p>

<p>really doesn't matter. Then, is the digital one better or the book version?</p>

<p>I'd assume digital. It comes down to the ability to look up something in 1 or 2 seconds with the aid of a keyboard versus the ability to look up something in about 10 seconds with the aid of your fingers and the alphabet lol.</p>

<p>digital crap ****es me off with all the battery obligations and definitions without the latin roots. Go for the old-fashioned book, when you get fast it only take 3-5 seconds to get a word.</p>

<p>I misunderstood. When you said digital I thought you meant on the computer, not a literal 'digital' device.</p>

<p>If you're on the internet, it doesn't matter. I always go to <a href="http://www.m-w.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.m-w.com&lt;/a> or if you have firefox, the internet dictionary they use when you right click is awesome!</p>

<p>But buy American Heritage. Its supposed to be the best.</p>
