The bedford

Today in class, we went through the bedford dictionary and thought about the format of the work. I thought that it was interesting how everything was interconnected when giving the definitions of one word or idea. So you could look up a word and see go to a different word for the definition. That could use a lot of time, but it makes sense. I wondered if it would be better to group some of the ideas together. For instance, there are so many different types of Irony. So under I, perhaps you could see all the Ironies. I think that would have helped me when going through the book.  I did like looking through the book and reading the definitions that I already know.  It’s very interesting to look and see a bunch of different ideas, because they added a bunch of Ages where the ideas are no longer a simple definition book. They are a plethora of ideas in this book and even though it had a lot to get through, it was full of knowledge that I didn’t think would be in there.
