The New World of Words: Or Universal English Dictionary is a comprehensive dictionary written by Edward Phillips and published in 1720. The dictionary contains over 47,000 entries and provides definitions for a wide range of English words, including technical terms and slang. The book is organized alphabetically and includes etymological information, as well as examples of word usage in context. The dictionary also includes a section on proper names, including names of people, places, and historical events. The New World of Words was one of the first English dictionaries to include both British and American spellings and is considered a landmark work in the history of English lexicography. It remains a valuable resource for scholars of the English language and literature, as well as for anyone interested in the development of the English language over time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
