Webster's 1828 Dictionary USA

American Christian Version

$2.99 · Designed for iPad

Step into the pages of Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language—the only mainstream dictionary of its day threaded with thousands of Scripture quotations. Among early-nineteenth-century general-purpose references, nothing rivals its sweeping definitions, offering a front-row seat to an America where civic ideals and sacred language spoke in the same voice. Rich in scriptural and classical references, Webster’s work remains indispensable to historians, theologians, and cultural scholars. Writers and poets will likewise recognize its value: Emily Dickinson relied on these very definitions to refine meaning and nuance in her verse. This digital edition preserves the 70,000+ original definitions and their etymologies. The app’s Search, Favorites, and per-entry User Notes functions provide swift and organized access to the entire work. This latest release, offers the ability to email any definition—optionally including your own annotations—enabling easy sharing and collaboration.
