Developer: Nasda Studios
First release : 13 Sep 2012
App size: 20.29 Mb
Step into the pages of Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language—the only mainstream dictionary of its day threaded with thousands of Scripture quotations. Among early-nineteenth-century general-purpose references, nothing rivals its sweeping definitions, offering a front-row seat to an America where civic ideals and sacred language spoke in the same voice.
Rich in scriptural and classical references, Webster’s work remains indispensable to historians, theologians, and cultural scholars.
Writers and poets will likewise recognize its value: Emily Dickinson relied on these very definitions to refine meaning and nuance in her verse.
This digital edition preserves the 70,000+ original definitions and their etymologies. The app’s Search, Favorites, and per-entry User Notes functions provide swift and organized access to the entire work. This latest release, offers the ability to email any definition—optionally including your own annotations—enabling easy sharing and collaboration.
Latest reviews of Webster's 1828 Dictionary USA app for iPhone and iPad
I have the real Websters 1828 dictionary and this app does not have full definitions. Its very incomplete and I want a refund.
I have been looking for a Websters 1828 Dictionary app for a long time, and I love this one! One problem though: The app is wrongly named the "Noel" Websters Dictionary in 2 places—on the cover image and the app title. Please fix as its a bit embarrassing!
I have been wanting this in my pocket for a some time now. This is a definitive work. Some of you just got that... ;-)
Very impressive!
I was excited to see this app for iPhone but was disappointed to see that it wont work with my iPhone 4.
