知乎前面写过好几篇关于英文词典的文章：姑蘇小王：对于英语学习，当下流行的词典，你会使用吗？；姑蘇小王：The Oxford English Dictionary （OED）牛津英语词典；姑蘇小王：再谈The Oxford English Dictionary与Additions Series；姑蘇小王：国内外外国语词典全集畅谈——词典篇，今天主要想继续谈论的是，继上面这些文章后，自己更新的有趣词典与词汇方面的畅谈，这次应该是自己收藏与使用世界上出版相对最全且最新的词典了。
写这篇文章主要是前几天看了一篇文章，关于OED（【牛津英语大词典】）官网2024年收入关于日本文化的英文词汇，许多词汇都是我们耳熟能详的日文，如今演变成了英文词汇，例句也是很贴切生活。
关于「santoku 三德」，我2021年购买过这把三德菜刀（santoku knife），特别好用，这几年每天做饭切菜、肉、鱼等等都是用的这把菜刀，当然一把好的菜刀也是爱好做美食者的最爱。
豚骨拉面（Tonkotsu ramen）还是挺好吃的，许多人都吃过。
言归正传，谈今天词典话题。
以前林语堂先生早年写过一篇大家都熟悉的文章【我所得益的一部英文字典】，是关于「Concise Oxford Dictionary」与「Pocket Oxford Dictionary」（【简明牛津英文字典】和【袖珍牛津英文字典】）.先生当年使用的【袖珍牛津英文字典】是1924年版本，关于他所列「young」的用法也是词典中的例证。
词典的好坏不在于收词多少，而是里面的例证，关于小词的各种用法，这是关键，我们从学习一个小词开始，学习例证中的用法，然后把这些灵活变为自己脑海中的句子，这才是学到了东西，久而久之掌握了这门有趣的语言。
我自己至今收藏最全的英文词典与之相关辞书这是我所喜爱的，这与我收藏的外文书籍是一样的，毕竟词典许多朋友都谈过其用法以及分类，但是谈论归谈论，如果所谈论的每一类词典自己都能一一翻阅过内容，那收获又是不一样的，就像是说自己拥有的东西，同时也是自己兴趣爱好，那感觉是与看到而没有获得所不一样的。正如那句谚语所说："A bird in the hand is worth two in the brush"（双鸟在林不如一鸟在手）.

以上便是自己这些年收藏的英文词典，开始那些是世界一流词典以及最新版本，后面一些如牛津词典系列会与前面有些重复，尽可忽略。词典的使用大家必须得配几本纸质版本，如学习词典与本土词典，这是很有帮助的，高清电子版本只是方便携带，手机或者电脑以及iPad皆可以随时随地打开翻阅与查询，亦可以复制与搜索，给外语学习带来便利。
词典给人带来的乐趣还是挺多的，不光光是词汇，主要还是每个词汇的词条用法，例证，这些在不同词典里面罗列都是各有特色，对比学习效果更佳。希望热爱语言的书友朋友们可以选几本自己喜欢的词典，对于阅读外文书籍亦或写作与考试都会有大的帮助。勤查询，多使用，这样胜于无数老师，外语学习在没有环境的条件下，词典就是老师，就是给我们创造了学习氛围，当然得是原版词典，得阅读英文释义，这样的效果是很惬意的。
最后分享3本很不错的外语书籍：
RSC William Shakespeare Complete Works
RSC William Shakespeare and Others Collaborative Plays
Danae A Poem （【达娜厄】），有关希腊神话达娜厄的故事，是一首英文叙事长诗，Thomas Sturge Moore所创作。
作为一个爱书的人，从2017年至今收藏、整理与分类8665册外文书籍（340.68G），自己纸质版本不算在内，个人心情充满了喜怒哀乐，不过确实感谢这些精挑细选之书的陪伴，自己也不会感到无聊，亦有许多书友朋友与我交流沟通，这也是不错的。须知参差多态乃是生活的本源。
今天关于词典方面的分享就谈到这。
