This new edition of The Merriam-Webster Dictionary is the sixth in a line of Merriam-Webster paperback dictionaries which began in 1947. It is based on and preserves the best aspects of preceding editions, but it also offers much that is new, drawing specifically on Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, eleventh Edition. Every entry and every section has been reexamined and revised in light of the most current information available. Definitions have been based on examples of actual usse found in the Merriam-Webster citation files, which now contain more than 15,000,000 examples of English words in context from a wide range of printed sources, and more than 75 million words available through electronic searching. The editors of this book have created it with the same careful, serious atention that has gone into every Merriam-Webster dictionary.
