^ The biggest problem with dictionaries is that you usually have to know how to spell a word in order to look up how to spell it.

(I read about a dictionary a long time ago which allowed you to look up words according to how they sound and then show the proper way to spell it. For instance: dickshunairee.)
 
Most online and offline digital dictionaries work very well by simply saying the word you're looking for, as does Google.

But, Santa might be more concerned about people using the wrong words --- definitions.

That is one of the primary functions of early education, to learn the rudiments of the language.

By the time a student has progressed to secondary school, he is aware of the various possibilities for phonetics versus spellings.

There's no failsafe way, but dictionaries worked well for the diligent students of English for centuries. Maybe their time has passed in a way, as communicative clarity seems no longer to be a value of the coming generations. Close is good enough, and vague, and inarticulate.

Everything is "weird."

"Shit" is a weak euphemism for many things that the weak cannot describe.

"Gay" means stupid to them, or embarrassing.

"a thing" is the new "shit"

'Is this or that really a thing?'

It makes me cringe as though I've been poked in the eye.

I dunno.

"A thing" has really been a thing for a long time, although the meaning has changed. It has a Yiddish inflection to it.

The omnipresent "shit" makes me want to find a mute button that will stop the person speaking. If everything is shit in a sentence, then it is the enemy of communicating.
 
Great, now I'm missing the guy with the chav hat avatar who ended every post with n'shit.:)

numinous, or something similar, I think.

The dictionary to which I referred was created and printed long before the Commodore64 hit the store shelves.
