For the new edition, America’s largest staff of lexicographers made more than 100,000 changes and added more than 10,000 new words and senses, such as convergence, Frankenfood, phat, psyops, and vermiculture. The Eleventh Edition also features over 40,000 usage examples—more than ever before—which clarify confused or disputed terms. Additionally, thousands of phrases and idioms help distinguish vocabulary for language learners. Special sections include A Handbook of Style, An Essay on the English Language, and Signs and Symbols.
The CD-ROM offers dozens of powerful search options and is easily downloaded to your computer’s hard drive. The online component, a one-year subscription to the new Collegiate Web site, includes not only the full, searchable text of the Collegiate Dictionary with audio pronunciations, but also provides access to online versions of Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate® Thesaurus, Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate® Encyclopedia, and Merriam-Webster’s Spanish/English Dictionary.
