Or, since we don't really speak English here in the US, if our dictionaries would specify AMERICAN. Because there is such a huge variation in the day to day language and there has been a diversion into distinct, I am unsure of this is the correct word, but dialects of the English language. It really does matter.
BTW, I found a nice link to a dictionary today as I am looking for something to use with my N800 and Stardict...
You can find oodles of them here:

I think I will take a swing at WordNet (
http://wordnet.princeton.edu/) or The Collaborative International Dictionary of English first and/or second in some yet to be determined order. Though if I was gonna buy one it would be the Oxford.
