 NYTimes Crossword Dictionary a Disappointment
By Linda F. Kamzelski
When my A-Z Crossword Dictionary fell apart from overuse, I was anxious to try the NYTimes Dictionary. I wish I had ordered another copy of the A-Z instead. In the A-Z, I was able to find more answers, and the foreign word sections were much better than in the Times. Also, the Times Dictionary lists foreign countries in dark gray boxes which make the text very hard to read. Love the NY Times crosswords, but the Dictionary needs work!

What’s a 12-letter word for sorry I bought this?
By A
Disappointed. I am a devoted NYT Sunday puzzle doer. I have done about 4 weeks worth of puzzles since I aquired the book. Of the 50 or so words/terms/places, etc. I have looked up, I found probably 5. This is NOT the crossword puzzle dictionary I remember from years ago, which was tailored to actual multi-word clues, and did not just provide “synonyms” for single word entries.

 The New York Times Crossword Dictionary
By A
This is one of the best dictionaries I have found. It gives the best answers in any category there is. Is there a fourth edition?
