You obviously don't read Dickens
. He uses a huge vocabulary of words which are no longer in common usage. Although one can, generally speaking, guess their approximate meaning from context, it's interesting to be able to look up what they actually mean.
When I read on a Sony and didn't have a dictionary, I too thought that a dictionary was no big deal. Now I have a really good dictionary on my Gen3, I find myself using it all the time.
