註釋Having spelling problems? Not sure whether to spell it demur or demure? faint or feint? lagard or laggard? For quick answers, check the Desk Dictionary. Or if you know the pronunciation but not the spelling, consult the Table of Sound-Spelling Correspondences. Eager to build up your vocabulary? Study the easy lessons and do the exercises in the Vocabulary Builder. Having questions about grammar or usage? Dip into the chapter on Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation. And if you need a good synonym or antonym, try the handy Thesaurus, containing more than 80,000 synonyms and antonyms. But there's more. The Random House English Language Desk Reference includes such practical sections as the Concise Guide for Writers, Avoiding Sexist Language, and the Ready Reference Guide. In addition to the 30,000-word Desk Dictionary of American English, there is also an illuminating Rhyming Dictionary for versifiers, lyricists, and the poet in all of us.
