With the CD-Rom and the free online subscription, this resource is invaluable for anyone who needs a hands on resource for words, their origins, etc.

I am an EFL teacher and have dictionaries of different publishers. MW9 was my first dictionary of a kind and it started the life-long romance with this beautiful piece of lexicography. The 11th edition is a step forward,the only thing lacking being the list of colleges and universities in US and Canada, which I do miss. Otherwise, the only competition this dictionary can have is the new edition of Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary by OUP, but I still think MW11 is more up-to-date and interesting to use.

So far I am pleased with this dictionary. I had to make the purchase for my 6th & 8th graders, and I believe they are finding it easy to use.
