Do you prefer to use an electronic dictionary or a dictionary made of paper?
I prefer to use an electronic dictionary to a paper one because an electronic dictionary is convenient to use, keep and carry. They can be downloaded on smartphones and we do not have to flip pages to look for a word’s meaning.

I will feel very happy as it would be a useful gift for me or anyone. We keep coming across new words and I believe that everyone should have a dictionary to search for their meanings.
Do you think it would be interesting to write a dictionary? OR Do you think it would be interesting to be part of a team that is writing a dictionary?
Yes, I believe it would be pretty interesting to write the details of all the words, like which part of speech they form, its synonyms, origin, how a word is used in the form of an adjective or noun. Also there are many words which have more than one meaning. Also its pronounciation is written in brackets below the word because not all the words are pronounced the way they are spelled.

Lexicals who write dictionaries have an in-depth knowledge and also know the origin and history of vocabulary words. It requires a great deal of preciseness, hard work , perfection and patience to write a dictionary.

Here I would like to Share international news of the Covid-19 vaccine that I recently read. Actually, I developed my interest in news during the lockdown as I was following how the corona is spreading in different parts of the world.
No doubt, millions worldwide are suffering from this disease, and thousands have lost their lives. Earlier, it was projected that the corona vaccine would be available by 2022, but I got delighted to read the news that the vaccine is now available. My friend shared the link of this news with me, and I read it with curiosity.
I learnt that now many countries like Britain, Russia, and India had developed the vaccine, and soon, it will be available in the market. This news is really reassuring because people are living in fear because of the corona. This disease is contagious and fatal, but now patients do not have to worry because they can be treated.
With mass production soon, the vaccine will be available worldwide, and everyone would be injected to safeguard against the coronavirus.
I immediately shared this news with my family members and also on different social networking platforms such as Facebook, whatsapp, instagram, and others. Now I am in the regular habit of following international news.
