Finally, a reliable dictionary that is small enough to keep on hand at all times, but comprehensive enough to provide all the information you need about words. It provides concise, accurate definitions, contains 40,000 entries, and is filled with features usually found only in larger dictionaries, such as end-of-line divisions, pronunciations, part-of-speech labels, inflected forms, and a brief guide to punctuation.

3.0 out of 5 stars Small Dictionary, February 24, 2006

Jesse E. Weiss (Stroudsburg, PA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Merriam-Webster's Pocket Dictionary (Pocket Reference Library) (Paperback)

This is a very small Dictionary and handy to keep by my computer. However in being so small(the smallest I have seen) it limits the amount of words. The print is small and rather difficult for older people to see. But just the same it is useful as a large dictionary would be awkward for my use.

This review is from: Merriam-webster's Pocket Dictionary (Paperback)

I bought this dictionary for my children in 4th grade. It is perfect for them, truly pocket-sized when every other book they are lugging around weighs a ton.
