GeezerVison is showing www.ahdictionary.com — The American Heritage Dictionary entry:   HOW TO USE THE DICTIONARYTo look up an entry in The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, use the search window above. For best results, after typing in the word, click on the “Search” button instead of using the “enter” key. Some compound words (like bus rapid transit, dog whistle, or identity theft) don’t appear on the drop-down list when you type them in the search bar. For best results with compound words, place a quotation mark before the compound word in the search window. THE USAGE PANELThe Usage Panel is a group of nearly 200 prominent scholars, creative writers, journalists, diplomats, and others in occupations requiring mastery of language. Annual surveys have gauged the acceptability of particular usages and grammatical constructions.  AMERICAN HERITAGE DICTIONARY APPThe new American Heritage Dictionary app is now available for iOS and Android.  THE AMERICAN HERITAGE DICTIONARY BLOGThe articles in our blog examine new words, revised definitions, interesting images from the fifth edition, discussions of usage, and more.
