I use the dictionary and thesaurus everyday. It is fun to get a word of the day and attempt to use it in conversation. Really revs up the vocabulary.

Hey there Raja_Franklin I use my dictionary all the time. Even though English is my first language I am a lousy speller and it is right by my side while I am on myLot it is really handy!

When I was a kid I would read the dictionary almost everyday because I really had a thing for words. I loved learning new words and my dictionary was the best place to look up new words. I'd start from letter A and would read it until I reach the letter Z. Talk about being a weird kid huh? Nowadays, I rarely get to read the dictionary. Most of the time I spend at work so if I need to look anything up, I'd usually check Webster's site instead.

i usually use an online dictionary, but i use it quite frequently. the one i use (dictionary.reference.com) has a thesaurus as well, and i really like that. for most of the time, i use it for spelling or to find exactly the right word i want to use.

I am not a native English speaker, and hence I have to use dictionary quite often. An Oxford educated gentlemen, who is also a prolific writer, advised me to always keep an English dictionary on my reading table. I was surprised when he told me that he had to consult a dictionary quite often.

My vocabulary is not that good. Whenever I am reading something I get stuck with some words and refer dictionary. This happens quite often.
