Merriam-Webster Online YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!

Since when is this a friggin' paid service?

Dammit, this was what made you better than the Oxford Dictionary Online! Screw you!

See if I ever look up words on your site again.

And I'm so taking you off my LJ link list...

Yeah... thank you. I love the ease of an online dictionary. But... this site doesn't have the entry for "slipt" ... oh well. It's an old spelling.

I thought they were always a paid service. Weren't they? Anyway, you could try http://dictionary.cambridge.org instead. I like it because they've got several different dictionaries you can search.

No. They weren't last week when I used it. You could always just go to their site, type in a word at the top, and get a dictionary or thesaurus match. I liked it because I like the Webster dictionaries and it didn't charge like it's big rival, the Oxford Dictionary.

Oh well. Thank you for the link.

Huh? Do you mean m-w.com? I just used it right this second. It didn't ask me for any money.

::does it::

This is insane! When I did it this morning (three times) it send me to an add page and offered me a free so-many-day-trial period. ::pulls out hair:: I don't understand!

Apparently www.m-w.com is not charging at the moment. Though I swear it was this morning. I am very confused.

Sorry to intrude. If M-W does start charging, there's always www.onelook.com, which combines 20 dictionaries, starting with M-W.
