               words using a dictionary.

                       words are found in a dictionary.


                   •  It is hard to find a particular word so easily out of so

                       many words with no time.

                       redirects us towards that particular word whose

                       meaning  we need to find.

               alphabetical order and find meanings of words by using a

               dictionary.
