  • After watching our video on Improving Your English Vocabulary, a visitor with the nickname

  • "justreal" asked, "thank u 4 giving me the ways to improve my words. And my question

  • is; what is the best dictionary should I use?"

  • I recommend the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English. It's online, it's free, and it's

  • a great dictionary.

  • Visit ldoceonline.com. Type the word or phrase that you want to look up. Click "search", and

  • you will get your result instantly. We will include a link to the Longman Dictionary below

  • this video.

  • Before I finish, I want to answer another question.

  • A visitor named "sally" asked, "How can I learn the symbols of pronunciation in the dictionary?"

  • About.com has a helpful guide to phonetic symbols. Do a Google search for "about.com

  • phonetic symbols." The first search result will lead you to a really helpful resource

  • for understanding pronunciation symbols in the dictionary.

  • Thank you Justreal and Sally for your questions. If anybody else has a question for us, please

  • post it at bit.ly/askmyquestion.

  • Now, I have a question for you. Do you have a dictionary that translates words from your

  • language? What dictionary do you use? Add a comment below this video.
