Archaic, misogynistic, outdated.

Sometimes racist, outdated, and misogynistic definitions and sentence examples. After using for a few years I am done. My suggestion on fixing one of the definitions was responded to quickly but no change was ever made. If there is no improvements then this dictionary app has now become archaic to me. Oxford English Dictionary app would’ve been better all along. Go with your instinct and the obvious dictionary to use. OED is well respected and renowned.

Thank you word web for providing your dictionaries for free ... The PC's as well as iPhone. Great work God bless

Great App

This is an awesome app and would recommend it to anyone.

Best by me!

Check this out, not only is it free, it has more words than the 'so-called' big guns [payware] out there. Not many dictionaries can find "Bezoar" and yet Wordweb has a very good definition. No ads. [Yay!] I also recommend Wordweb for your pc desktop.
