Description

This app is a recreation of the Noah Webster 1828 two-volume dictionary. Its intrinsic value will not only be of great interest to those studying American heritage and Christian studies, but also to writers and those exploring poetry. Noah Websters 1828 American Dictionary contains the greatest number of Biblical definitions given in any reference volume. It is an invaluable resource written when American values and patriotism were based on Christian values. Of interest to poets and writers, The Noah Webster dictionary was used extensively by Emily Dickinson. We know that she made frequent and extensive use of Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language in writing her poems, paying attention not only to the definitions but also to Webster's etymologies and his illustrative quotations. Being able to see how definitions have evolved today is fascinating, and a great resource when studying. You can easily search or browse the entire dictionary and add favourites to revisit later. App design by professional app developer NASDA Studios.

    I read a lot of archaic writings, and I have been disappointed that this dictionary has so many words omitted.
  • Excellent Resource, however...

    This is a remarkable resource. The interface is clean and easy to use. However, as someone who is vision impaired, it would be very helpful if I could enlarge the font sizes within the app or zoom in on the screen. With that being said, I still highly recommend this app.

    I have a copy of the 1828 Dictionary and this isn’t even close! First, what is up with putting a German eagle on the cover? Secondly, where are all the amazing sentence illustrations? Where are the depth of definitions? And where is the entomology of the words? This is like some middle school dictionary! Maybe I purchased the wrong one but I’d sure like my money back. This was pure deception!

    I’m literally watching my friend open his original version of this dictionary and it does not have the same definitions. I honestly, feel like it’s a waste of my money.

    Not Daniel Webster. It was written buy Noah. Two totally different individuals. I am So glad to finally have the dictionary that gives meanings the correct biblical foundations.

    Absolutely adore this dictionary. It gives you the definitions of the words as our founding fathers meant them before lawyers came in and mucked it all up.
  • A great dictionary
