It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning, history, and usage of 500,000 words and phrases past and present, from across the English-speaking world.<\/p>\n<p>As a historical dictionary, the\u00a0<em>OED\u00a0<\/em>is very different from dictionaries of current English, in which the focus is on present-day meanings. You\u2019ll still find present-day meanings in the\u00a0<em>OED<\/em>, but you\u2019ll also find the history of individual words, sometimes from as far back as the 11th century, and of the language\u2014traced through 3.5 million quotations, from classic literature and specialist periodicals to film scripts, song lyrics, and social media posts.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<em>OED\u00a0<\/em>started life more than 150 years ago. Today, the dictionary is in the process of its first full revision. Updates revise and extend the\u00a0<em>OED<\/em>\u00a0at regular intervals, each time subtly adjusting our image of the English language.<\/p>\n<p>However, that\u2019s not all the\u00a0<em>OED<\/em>\u00a0is. We also offer a wide range of teaching resources, educational virtual events, video guides, and interactive quizzes.
