I know, I know, it's time to fix my notorious spelling. Can anyone please:

(1) Advise a good online dictionary (I thought Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary)

and

(2) Advise how to bookmark an online dictionary to my school's computer. (Unfortunately, my school computer's operating program is in Hangul).


Thanks. Any info appreciated.

Bookmark from Internet Explorer.

4th from left on Menu 즐겨찾기(A), then the first option 즐겨찾기에 주가(A).

Try it and see, best way to learn (unless it's something that kills you!).

http://m-w.com/ is great, as it also has a thesaurus!!

If you add the google toolbar, you can just type in the first few letters and the word you want usually comes up.

I use both of these A LOT because my spelling is crap!

Thanks Adjuma. This might sound crazy - but how does a technophobe 'add the Google Tool Bar'?

Type "google tool bar download" into whatever search engine you're using now...and follow the link and instructions. Really easy to do.
