Webster's American Family Dictionary (Palm OS) - A Palm PDA dictionary program, featuring the Webster's American Family Dictionary. The aim of the Webster's American Family Dictionary is unique and challenging: it is to capture and record the standard vocabulary of American English in a way that reflects the common ethical, moral, religious, social, and civic values of mainstream Americans. It is, in short, both a lexical and cultural record of standard American English at the dawn of the 21st century.
A family reference that goes beyond removing offensive language, Webster's American Family Dictionary reflects the language and cultural values of most American families. While remaining inclusive enough for use through the college level, this new dictionary also covers special categories that are not typically treated in other standard dictionaries, such as the Bible, religious notables, cultural literacy, American history and civics, American folklore, popular proverbs and sayings.
