The dictionary will appeal to those interested in British English for research, as well as for the purposes of language learning and teaching. For students and teachers in particular, this dictionary offers a wide range of exercises to activate vocabulary knowledge ... The dictionary is accompanied by a website Lancslex that allows active engagement with frequency and distribution information about words in British English. The website's user-friendly interface facilitates effortless word searches and text analysis for examining lexical sophistication."
