Forlagets egen omtale

The Oxford Sentence Dictionary is a unique electronic dictionary consisting of almost 2 million sentences of real English derived from 21st-century sources. The Sentence Dictionary links every word, sense, and phrase in Oxford’s two most comprehensive current English dictionaries, the Oxford Dictionary of English and the New Oxford American Dictionary, to a selection of example sentences taken from the Oxford English Corpus, a 2-billion word database of real English (oxforddictionaries.com/page/oec/).

The Sentence Dictionary examples give you a wide range of additional information to help gain a better understanding of the word or sense in question and reveal linguistic and cultural subtleties beyond the scope of a conventional dictionary.
