Line 1: Line 1:  
A '''dictionary''' is a book that contains an [[alphabet]]ized listing of ideally all known words in a particular language. Typically, the meanings of the words are given along with their origin, accepted spelling, pronunciation, [[part of speech]], and plurals. Some dictionaries also include example sentences or words translated from other languages. The creation of dictionaries can be a dynamic process, due to languages continually developing new words.

* Many world renowned dictionaries contain liberal or atheistic bias, for example the Oxford English Dictionary defines evolution as "a process by which species develop from earlier appearance as an explanation of their origins", the definition contains no information stating this is only a theory and does not point to alternate theories which are just as or more viable.
