Merriam-Webster's Everyday Language Reference Set [Paperback]
An attractive, cheap reference set. Includes The Merriam-Webster Dictionary, The Merriam-Webster Thesaurus, and Merriam-Webster's New Vocabulary Builder. the perfect tool for scholars who need authoritative resources at their fingertips.
Every home needs to be equipped with certain items. A dictionary and thesaurus are two of those items. When looking to buy these items I went with a name I trusted, Merriam Webster. I chose to purchase the complete set because I found it interesting that it included a vocabulary builder. My family and I choice a word a day from the informative books and use it as much as possible.
We enjoy picking a word from the vocab builder, then looking it up in the dictionary. We use the thesaurus to find similar words, and words that mean the complete opposite. The choices are endless. I have yet heard a word that can not be found in one of the three books. Unlike most thesaurus' this version has almost every word. It was surprising, because often with thesaurus' the choices are limited. This is one problem that I have yet to run into. I like the idea of buy a few copies for family members and friends that are graduating in this year. My fiance even discussed that we need our own set when we get married.
