The Official Scrabble Players Dictionary

Excellent and legible

I was so excited to get this sixth edition with all the latest words added, but discovered this is geared toward North American players, not UK. It's missing some of the UK approved words. It's good, but not perfect. The search goes on for the updated UK version.

My fault for not reading the small print. However many words allowed in United Kingdom are not in this version. You will still need to have your Chambers edition from 2000 by your side.Don't get me wrong, this has some interesting stuff. However the longer I play the more words I can't find.Best wishesOliver NashAuthor of the Primate Puzzle

This is perfect for resolving disputes over spelling or eligibility of words. I've also found myself perusing it in the search for potentially useful words - short ones with no vowels using letters from the end of the alphabet! I've given it a four star rating because it's a relatively cheap quality paperback and after a few week's use it's beginning to look a bit scruffy even though we're a book friendly house - not really a problem, but I'm old school and was brought up to treat them nicely and keep them in good condition, but it's not possible with this one.

Unfortunately, this version is the USA version. Whilst it is acceptable, if I had known it was not the British version, I would not have bought it.

My problem with this new edition is that it's American. Doesn't have a lot of the old words that we are used to in the old green coloured edition. Shame.The good thing is that it is large print so easy to read for my elderly parents.
