I would like your recommendation on the best English dictionaries. I seem to remember Rosie mentioning a few once, but I have forgotten them. (not limited to Logos)
I would like your recommendation on the best English dictionaries. I seem to remember Rosie mentioning a few once, but I have forgotten them.
First, Lexham Bible Dictionary. I believe in Lexham Press.
Second, the IVP Black dictionaries.
Finally, Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary.
I find myself consulting these over and over time and time again. It's very seldom I have to use another bible dictionary.
You said English recommendations. Not bible English recommendations. So Merriam Webster College Dictionary 11th edition is the standard English dictionary in the United States. Additionally, in our Bible Software is the Concise Oxford English Dictionary.which covers Europe so you have both sides of the Atlantic.
I don't remember mentioning a few dictionary recommendations.
My favorite was always the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (now in its 5th edition), though now I usually use a variety of online dictionaries through onelook.com which is a dictionary metasearch page. I think the American Heritage Dictionary is good for those for whom English is a second language. It's not available in Logos, but it is available in Kindle format for not too much. It's also available as an app for Android or iOS. It is also one of the dictionaries you can search from onelook.com, however I'm not sure how complete the excerpts shown there are, and you can't browse in it from there, and that doesn't include the pictures which are its key distinguishing feature. On the other hand the American Heritage Dictionary focuses on American English, not British, which the Concise Oxford would give you.
Thank you all. Thank you Rosie that is good.
