Oxford Dictionary Comes To iPhone

Finally, an application that is worth the money. I know a lot of folks don’t know what a dictionary is. It’s in general a book that has a lot of words in it (OK. it’s a bad joke but you get the point). Oxford English Dictionary is very useful for immigrants and foreigners in the U.S. If you see a word that you have no idea about its meaning.

Oxford iPhone dictionary has definition for 240,000 words, and 20,000 pronunciations. I personally like the auto-complete feature as it helps finding words faster.

Now, I admit that not many people need this kind of a dictionary on their iPhones, but a lot of works who depend on dictionary to do their jobs everyday can take advantage of the Oxford iPhone dictionary. A powerful dictionary that could be overkill for most of us, but it will have its use for folks who use dictionaries on a daily basis.
