Description
A dictionary is a lasting companion to all, be it a learner or a scholar, a good dictionary is indispensable. We come to it again and again; from time to time, we refer, perceive, ponder and pause. It is something we like to possess, an undiminishing treasure we like to draw from again and again.
The special supreme feature worth mentioning is the pioneer inclusion of Tamil Phonetic transcription with accents and additional faunts not found in the lexical world. This will help the nervous to check up their pronunciation or learn it anew. Weaklings will feel better and homely with the Tamil version.
We have included a lot of words relating to computer hardware and software. The meanings of many words have been given pictorial explanations.
