Providing the most thorough coverage of American English, the third edition of this dictionary from Oxford is a welcome arrival. With an emphasis on English as an international language, the dictionary has been updated with 2000 new words, senses, and phrases, including words whose meanings have undergone societal and technological change, such as bookmark, browse, and favorite. Updated proper names are also included (Mumbai instead of Bombay), as are entries for informal language and slang.
