2018 Dictionary Challenge

Dictionary Before And After Front

Dictionary Before And After Binding

It took 3 years for me to d-define all of the words in, “The New International Webster’s Comprehensive Dictionary of The English Language,” A-Na volume. This volume of the dictionary has 842 pages. The next volume of the dictionary, which contains the words of the English language from Na-Z, is comprised of 624 pages.

For my 2018 dictionary challenge, I will aim to complete the second volume of “The New International Webster’s Comprehensive Dictionary of The English Language.” D-defining a couple of pages a day will result in a completion of this goal.

Love, Speed, and Accuracy,

2017 Dictionary Challenge- Finished In The Nick Of Time

2017 Dictionary 1

2017 Dictionary 2

2017 Dictionary 3

With about 48 hours to spare, I finished my dictionary goal for 2017. Yesterday, after three years, I was able to finally complete entering all of the words from, “The New International Webster’s Comprehensive Dictionary of The English Language” A-Na Volume. This book is the first volume of a two-volume set.

After lugging my dictionary around for three years, it looks like the pictures above. The dictionary has been my daily companion for three years, and it definitely shows. Lol.

Tomorrow, or the day after, I will post my dictionary goal for 2018. I’m looking forward to finishing up this two-volume set, and moving on to my specialty dictionaries.

Love, Speed, and Accuracy,

Dictionary Challenge Update: October 13, 2017

I just finished the “J” words last night. Yay!

The J section is relatively short; so is the K section. I’m hoping I can finish the “K” words in a few days. That would give me a bit more than 2 months to finish the “L” and “M” words by the end of the year, and complete my goal for 2017.

I am routing for myself. Lol.

Love, Speed, and Accuracy,
