I have chosen a word (conceal) and I am going
to look for it in several dictionaries. Here you have the results I have got
online:
Oxford dictionary: http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/es/definicion/ingles/conceal
Webster dictionary: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/conceal
Word reference: http://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=conceal
Webster dictionary for learners: http://www.learnersdictionary.com/definition/conceal
In my opinion Oxford dictionary and Webster
dictionary are quite similar but I find it that Webster dictionary is lightly
more complete because you have synonyms, antonyms, rhymes and examples without
any additional click. I Think the
sentences that are provided in this one
are easier to understand, which is pretty important, otherwise you will
need probably to look for another word! The negative point in Webster
dictionary is that for listening the pronunciation of the word another tab must
be opened (and I couldn’t hear it) whilst you can hear it directly in Oxford
dictionary.
The last definition I found belongs to Webster
dictionary too, but it is made to English learners, so there are less resources but they are
written in a easier way.
