— The Webster

PS, yes free.

More than free, cc by-nc. Meaning: you can take it and improve on it.

Or even make it worse.

(Thank Lessig.)

If you come by http://www.thewebstersdictionary.com to pick up a copy, hope you do, you’re invited to stop off at the Webster’s Bar & Grill (tab in the nav bar) afterwards, sign in, pull up a chair, start a conversation!

One can find cheap dictionaries in dollar stores claiming to be “Webster’s.”

But unlike HCE, the licensing actually allows teachers to use it in their classroom. I’ll definitely check it out.
