The Macmillan English Dictionary is now online! I like the fact that each dictionary entry is linked to its thesaurus entry (just click on the red and white ‘T’) – great when you’re writing essays. Also, you can listen to all of the entries being read aloud. While I like the LDOCE very much, their online version no longer has the recordings available, so the Macmillan is definitely better for learning the pronunciation of words.

By default, each entry in the Macmillan dictionary is shown with just a simple definition and example. Make sure you click on the ‘Show More’ button to get more information on how to use the word/phrase, etc. After you click on ‘Show More’, you’ll also see a ‘Word Forms’ button. Remember to click on that too!
