Hi, I just purchased Complete Word Study Dictionary and it downloaded fine to my computer but I could not see it on my iTouch list even after rebooting.  That cost me $40 and I mostly purchased it is for my device.  Is there no device version available?

 

Thank you,

Sandy

Thank you for responding, but that doesn't answer my question.  Is Complete Word Study Dictionary available for iTouch/iPhone???  I downloaded it to my computer but it is not on the list in on iTouch.

I am sorry and new to eSword.  I just now found it under Lexicon.

A while back there was quite a discussion here about dictionaries and lexicons and just what the differences are.  (Some of us still aren't positive they have it right,)  ;-)

The Oxford English Dictionary has these definitions as the way we currently use the words.

 

 

 

Lexicon

 a. A word-book or dictionary; chiefly applied to a dictionary of Greek, Hebrew, Syriac, or Arabic.

The restricted use is due to the fact that until recently dictionaries of these particular languages were usually in Latin, and in modern Latin lexicon, not dictionarius, has been the word generally used.

 

Dictionary

 a. A book which explains or translates, usually in alphabetical order, the words of a language or languages (or of a particular category of vocabulary), giving for each word its typical spelling, an explanation of its meaning or meanings, and often other information, such as pronunciation, etymology, synonyms, equivalents in other languages, and illustrative examples. Cf. lexicon n., wordbook n.
