Advanced English Dictionary is distinguished from the other (paper, electronic) dictionaries in many ways. Not because it contains far more words than a conventional paper dictionary, but because it uses a radically new approach and technology called WordNet. Instead of just listing the words and their definitions, Advanced English Dictionary shows how every word is linked to another. Type in the word "tree" and you will get not only the definition, synonyms and opposites, but the hypernyms (a tree is a kind of what?), meronyms (what are the parts of a tree?) and more. You can also find a list of hundreds of trees, from yellowwood to the Tree of Knowledge, and even all words that contain the letters t-r-e-e. This WordNet approach will help you to understand better the meaning of words. Linguists call WordNet project one of the biggest leaps for dictionaries since scholars sat down to write the epic Oxford English Dictionary.

Thanks for this thebearman.

It's the Nokia S60 version but its a JAR (java) file so my w950i runs it - although its not the fastest loading app. As its not written for UIQ3 it doesn't recognise the touchscreen for navigation only for entering words. I've tried the UIQ3 .sis demo from the companys website (http://jdictionary-mobile.com/aed_for_uiq3.html) but that won't run after installing, "not found" error :-/ anyone else tried it with any luck?
