Synopsis
Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary is a completely new volume in the Merriam Webster's series of dictionaries. It is a general dictionary edited for use in school or college, in the office, and in the home-in short, wherever information about English words is likely to be sought. The average user should rarely have occasion to look for information about the vocabulary of present day English that is not available within these pages. The first Merriam Webster Collegiate appeared in 1898 and quickly won the esteem of students and general reader. A second edition was published in 1910, and subsequent editions came out in 1916, 1931, 1936, 1949, in 1963. This eighth in the series incorporates the best of the time tested features of its predecessors and introduces new features designed to add it to its usefulness. It's more than 1500 pages make it the most comprehensive Merriam Webster Collegiate ever published. The heart of Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary is the more than 1300 pages given over to the A-Z vocabulary. The information there set down derives not only from the 10,000,000 citations which were available to the editors of Webster's Third New International Dictionary and the 1963 Collegiate but also from the considerably more than 1,000,000 citations collected since the publication of these books. Thus each entry is based on a constantly updated file of actual English usage. Those entries known to be trademarks or service marks are so labeled and are treated in accordance with a formula for approved by the United States Trademark Association. This is the product of a company that has been publishing dictionaries for more than 125 years. It is offered to the user with the conviction that it will serve him well.
