Dictionary.com is a great Web site for any student (or anybody else, for that matter) to help with any papers or assignments dealing with writing.

As one can tell by its name, the Web site offers definitions of many words from a variety of dictionaries, including Webster’s Dictionary, Wordnet from Princeton University and The American Heritage Dictionary.

The Web site also offers a thesarus and a spell check feature for words that students aren’t sure of how to spell.

Another interesting feature of the Web site is that it also offers a word of the day to help enhance a viewer’s vocabulary.

Dictionary.com also offers dictionaries in other languages (including medical and legal dictionaries) fun and games with words, advice on grammar usage and many more features that anyone can have fun with.

Although the Web site is available to anyone with a computer, there are also many features for subscribed premium users, such as crosswords and an archive of games.

The Web site gives a new twist to the dictionary by offering more meanings and examples of how each word is used.

Now students don’t necessarily have to flip through a huge dictionary to find out how to spell a word or what it means; they just have to wait a few seconds for the site to load and the information is waiting at your finger tips.

If you’re looking for help with writing papers... finding a new word to replace an overused one, or finding out the meaning of a new word... visit www.dictionary.com and see how they can help you out with both writing and correct spelling.
