They appreciate the easy-to-follow pronunication guide and the convenience of having synonyms on the same page. My only quibble (as a tutor) is that the number and range of definitions is limited; but that is not a problem
Matching dictionary and thesaurus entries on the same page for one-stop lookup
More than 45,000 short, clear definitions
A generous choice of alternative words, with 130,000 thesaurus synonyms
Up-to-date language notes giving advice on English usage
The most modern take on the English language available: modern meanings shown first
