wordweb - A useful desktop dictionary

Reading the articles or news is useless unless you understand the true meaning of the words and their nature. It is not possible for anyone to know the complete vocabulary. Hence it is a good practice to have a dictionary with you. If you are using a computer, you don’t have to carry a real physical dictionary, it is sufficient to have good software that solves this problem. Word web is a desktop dictionary cum tiny encyclopedia. It is available in both premium and free version. It comes very handy when you want to write any article or while surfing if you want to know the meaning of any typical word. You can find the meaning of a word by simply selecting a word and opening the wordweb software or by pressing the shortcut key ctrl+alt+w. I prefer it because it also contains synonyms, antonyms and many other features for a single word. It also suggests the nearby words and anagrams when you type a wrong spelling. You have to install different dictionary addons to find the meaning later. It neatly resides in system tray so that it won’t bother you and starts up with windows. Good software to try out.
