Jerry,
The description states:
How does this compare to a standard dictionary? Well, a standard
desktop dictionary contains about 110,000 words with definitions and
is about 800 pages.
However, the UTD also includes sentences using each defined word in
context, for every "sense (meaning)" of the word.
PL] Is this feature in the demo? If yes, I cannot find it. Try the
following words
hubris
Bowdlerize
definition
exquisite
Finally, the lookup word combo box does not seem to support copy and
paste? I have tried pasting text into it and nothing happens.
