The 'Macquarie International English Dictionary' captures the language of the 21st century and helps readers use it correctly.
Today the English language is changing at an ever faster pace – not just vocabulary but the way we write, speak, and use e-mails, spell checkers, text messages and the Internet. In the midst of change the 'Macquarie International English Dictionary' offers clear and authoritative, fully researched guidance on the use of English, as well as exceptional breadth and depth of coverage. At the same time it keeps in touch with our linguistic and cultural heritage, including entries on people and places, key quotations, notes on word origins and word associations, and vocabulary from the new varieties of English, both local and global.
