This is an abstracted edition of Samuel Johnson’s monumental 'A Dictionary of the English Language,' a cornerstone of English lexicography. Published in the mid-18th century, Johnson’s dictionary was a landmark achievement, codifying and standardizing the English language in a way never before attempted. This abridged version makes Johnson’s work accessible to a wider audience, retaining the essence of his definitions and etymologies. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the English language as it was understood and used during the Enlightenment. A valuable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of the English language, Johnson’s dictionary remains a testament to the power and richness of words.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
