The Longman Dictionary vs The Cambridge Dictionary: Which online English-English dictionary is the best for you? We’re going to compare the overall look of both dictionaries; search and design; word levels and definitions; and how easy it is to look for difficult words, misspelled words, idioms, phrasal verbs, and slang.

Monolingual English dictionaries will help you improve your vocabulary and grammar, which in turn will lead to greater comprehension and speaking and writing fluency in English. Don’t miss this opportunity to enrich your English vocabulary by using such popular (and easy to use!) dictionaries as The Longman Dictionary and The Cambridge Dictionary while you’re reading and listening to fun and enjoyable content in English.

When you’re an Intermediate learner of English, making a switch from a translational dictionary (that translates vocabulary from English into your native tongue) to a monolingual (English-English) dictionary can be really beneficial for your English skills and will give you the opportunity to start thinking in your second language. An online English-English dictionary can become an invaluable resource for you, so consider adding either The Cambridge or Longman Dictionary into your daily studying routine (or any other monolingual dictionary for that matter!).
