I must tell you this. Today was a day where I encountered Oxford dictionaries. Oxford dictionaries have their own specialists dictionaries for every subject. This made me think as to how can i find a word in the general dictionary. It isn't possible. I have a 1991 edition of Oxford English dictionary which is quite old when I consider today the different and more specialized dictionaries available.
As I was going through flipkart I saw things like Dictionaries from French to English and then Dictionary from English to Hindi (Apna local language). I then pleaded not literally to my mother that she buy me one Hindi Dictionary when she goes out. She too was very enthusiastic about it. That enthusiasm propelled her to buy the dictionary. SHe like me also likes dictionaries but she seldom refers to it. She asks me some times. I saw the dictionary. It was pretty good. It had its English word at the beginning and if we don't know the corresponding Hindi word we are supposed to look for it. After all this too was from Oxford. Most reliable. Most dependable.
The inside was fabulous. I feared that the content will not be on par with the cost. But that was not the case. I found it pretty interesting. I saw some words like sukumar. And I started laughing at it. Because it reminded of my friend whose name was Sukumar during my school days.
I also went through flipkart for French dictionary. Later I decided that it is not required. I went through Latin dictionary also. Most of the words in English are from latin. Please buy a dictionary now different from what you have lying with you in your shelf. I have now 4 dictionaries. It is a secret.
Bye!!
