English dictionaries which were written before 18th century had only words which were not common or words which were difficult to spell Then in 1755 Dr Samuel Johnson a great English writer wrote a famous dictionary This dictionary included common words as well as unusual ones It also showed how words should be used in sentences
In 1858 a group of people who study language started to write The Oxford English Dictionary (OED牛津词典) They wanted to list all the words of the English language They even included words which were not used any more They also wrote sentences that show the meanings of words They also described the history of words saying when words were first used in English and which languages they came from The OED tells us for example that algebra comes from Arabic and was first used in English in the 16th century The dictionary took hundreds of people over seventy years to complete It has been improved many times as the number of words used in English has increased The more recent dictionary gives the meanings of over one million words It is put into twentyone books each one is over one thousand pages long
Although Americans speak English they use some words that are not used in British English For example the season an English person calls autumn is called fall by an American The first dictionary of American English was published (出版) by Noah Webster in 1828 He also decided to spell some words in a simpler way For example he wrote colour as color centre as center and plough as plow These spellings are still used in America today Since 1828 Webster’s Dictionary (韦氏词典) of American English has been improved and made bigger many times
