What is alliteration by the way?

For those who are too lazy to flip a dictionary or ask uncle google for words you do not know:

Lo and Behold, The Double Click Dictionary! (for Chrome anyway)

Chrome Dictionary Add On


On the other hand, I do not see what makes it so hard to flip a dictionary to know the definitions of words one doesn't know,


and please don't give me the lazy nonsense.

I find that not flipping the dictionary is one contributing factor as do why the average Malaysian vocabulary isn't so good.

I know people who've read Harry Potter without knowing what "Malevolent" is.

This would be useful for against those words whose meaning you have no idea.

I prefer chrome though. Doubleclicking is much more convenient than alt+click in my opinion =/

Would suggest that people improve on their written English before moving on to spoken English.

And when you do, keep this in mind:

Speak like how you type. This will differentiate you greatly from those who can speak well and those who don't.
