Outstanding work from an esteemed Founding Uncle.
Someone once said Noah Webster was not a Founding Father, per se, but he was a Founding Uncle. Many homeschoolers who want to maintain a sense of traditional biblical education use this dictionary. It should be in every home, esp. Christian home. Compare the definitions in this dictionary to modern dictionaries and see the difference. Here are a few: "SAVIOR: one that saves or preserves; but properly applied only to Jesus Christ, the Redeemer, who has opened the way to everlasting salvation by his obedience and death, and who is therefore called the Savior, by way of distinction, the Savior of men, the Savior of the world. Gen. Washington may be called Saver, but not the Savior of his country". MARRIAGE: the act of uniting a man and a woman for life; wedlock; the legal union of a man and woman for life. Marriage is a contract both civil and religious, by which the parties engage to live together in mutual affection and fidelity, till death shall separate them. Marriage was instituted by God himself for the purpose of preventing the promiscuous intercourse of the sexes, for promoting domestic felicity, and for securing the maintenance and education of children". Get this dictionary...it's worth it!. And it is a very nice, large, and well-made book. There is a prophetic statement by Noah Webster in the preface many are unaware of. It reads, in part: "The United States commenced their existence under circumstances wholly novel and unexampled in the history of nations...and our language, within TWO CENTURIES, will be spoken by more people in this country, than any other on earth, except the Chinese...It has been my aim in this work, now offered to my fellow citizens, to ascertain the true principles of the language in its orthography and structure...which we shall not be ashamed to bequeath to THREE HUNDRED MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, who are destined to occupy, and I hope, to adorn the vast territory with its jurisdiction..." Mind, this was written in 1828. TWO HUNDRED YEARS as Noah Webster foretold. What is the population 200 years later?. A little over 300 million just as he stated. I encourage you to get this dictionary. It's also just plain fun. Who knows how much longer it'll be available.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Interesting, historical and has some big surprises
Language has been getting lost in the muck of the last couple of hundred years. I love being able to look up works in this dictionary to help me know the definition of words I may not understand the full meaning of (as in the King James Bible) and also love to look up the meanings of words as they were then. A lot of subtle and not-so-subtle changes have been happening in the English language just in my lifetime! It even has some surprises, like its definition of the word superstitious. I could not help but get the feeling the original dictionary author(s) was/were thinking of some of the old Catholic practices, such as paying in advance of sinning to have them absolved. In fact, this older dictionary has no reference whatever toward things we think of today with that word, such as black cats crossing our paths or walking under ladders.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Very happy with our new, gigantic dictionary!
We are so happy we added this gigantic dictionary to our family heirloom library! It's beautiful and fairly easy to read. It's super easy to look up words as every column on each page are headed with the first three letters of the first word in that column. Although the first word I looked up was not in this dictionary I was still able to figure out its meaning as prefixes and root words are defined. I'll be able to use this dictionary many times! I feel like this dictionary is worth a lot more than I paid for but if it would have cost more I would not have purchased it. Thank you for the wonderful value!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Perfect Title
Pros Powerful testimony of Noah Webster’s work.The power of this book reaches out to me thruout its pages.His intelligence and mental capacity leaps out out me each time I open this dictionary.Not enough can ever be said of the inspiration,diligence,effort that it took to accomplish this task.No,actually more than a task. It is his love and passion for us,our language,our Christian faith and above all,our God of Heaven and Earth.I thank my God for a man like this. I am in awe of his vast drive,education and love for us and the new born nation that he was a part of. Cons- This dictionary is too short🙂.Could do with a further 200,00+ words etc.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great tool to understand words that have been lost to time and pernicious rebellious people.
This dictionary will give you the real definition of words that in recent time has been distorted or changed completely. The 1828 Noah Webster dictionary is also a great aid in the study of the King James Bible to understand definitions that have been lost to time and pernicious ways of the rebellious.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Understanding Words In Truth
Reading, speaking, are done with language to communicate. We should all know what we mean and what is meant when communicating with others. The truth about the words we speak and the consequences of error should make one want to change how they interact with others. We’re never too old to relearn the correct way to love in word and deed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

True dictionary of the English language
The dictionary is the best source for actual definitions of words that since it’s publication have been changed, compromised and perverted. Also it provides lessons on the english language and grammar.
