Merriam-Webster's Visual Dictionary is an unbelievable visual resource, including more than 20,000 definitions and beautiful illustrations.  Not only does this software offer detailed graphics for simple object-identification, but it elaborates into interpretation: the function, purpose, and significance of terms.  Featuring 6,000 illustrations, all smooth, high-quality graphics, the Visual Dictionary software is quick to load and very simple to navigate!  It allows users to browse the listings, conduct searches of listings, or find listings through hierarchical categories, beginning with 17 main categories like "Arts and Architecture", "Sports and Games", "Food and Kitchen", and "Transport and Machinery".  (Scroll down to see listing of 17 basic categories.)

The Visual Dictionary is a versatile tool, and can be used in traditional classroom settings or translation exercises, by teachers or the students themselves, and by people of all skill levels.  Entries are up-to-date, and illustrations are realistic, and diagrams help make concepts clearer for quicker learning.  Students can take advantage of five learning exercises, including "Scrambled Words" and "Type What You Hear"; in addition, there is always an Index feature handy for locating listings.  Fully equipped with thousands of real human-voice pronunciations and textual definitions—along with the visual representations, of course—the Visual Dictionary is educational for students, a delight to look at, and fascinating even for adults.
