Review by Ron Dorsey on WordWeb v. 8.1 Pro-edition/ free edition
Review: While staying resident (in memory) WordWeb is extremely useful for both composition and while reading. Just click on the word (to highlight it) and then click on the WordWeb icon and you will have ready definition(s). Although many modern-day browsers have a built-in word spellers, these word checkers are limited on trying to figure out what word you are trying to spell. I find WordWeb to be fast and has the ability to retrieve words, thesaurus, antonyms and synonyms.
I started with the free version and found myself often highlighting a word (double clicking) then click on the WordWeb icon, to learn how the word is used in context of the material I was reading. You can go on the net and look the word up but that is disruptive while reading. WordWeb allows just that if you wish, within WordWeb you may select to extend your knowledge and click on the Internet link.
Misspelling and grammatic errors are unforgivable and discounts your message.
