I prefer longman. and I have oxford advance dictionary in home
webster is too complicated! you want to find the meaning of a word you should check out 100 other words too.

The picture dictionary is pretty useful if you wanna learn new words, but if u wanna look up a word that seems unknown for you I personally recommend Longman Dictionary

Long man is best to be used at home.But as a portable dictionary, I'd prefer Colon's for cellphone and Narcis5(instead of babylon ) for pc.​

As a computer dictionary, what I do is install a Babylon & download different dictionaries for it. Including Webster

Bobylon's definitions are inclusive but the pronunciations are electronic instead of recorded .I personally prefer recorded ones, cause the accent can be imitated more easily.

There also These two books I really think are good .
Oxford collocations Dictionary .

The Oxford Collocations Dictionary shows you Which words work together

anyway if you wanna sound more natural while talking this Dic. really would help .

Michael Swan Practical English Usage

Practical English Usage is the indispensable reference book on language problems in English for Teachers and higher-level learners.

So that would be a good idea to have these books beside your Longman or Oxford Dictionaries .​

p.s : Both books R‌ published by Oxford

.During the past few months studying for konkur, I tried both Longman and Oxford advanced dictionaries and I believe Oxford has been more helpful
!If you want exact and strict definitions, Oxford it is
But for simple definitions and to understand the words easier you may choose Longman; I'm not implying that Oxford is not understandable; Oxford has a GREAT collection of .practical examples for words and phrases, but it's for when you're ok with spending time on the learning process​

 

[سارا مقدم]

i didn't know longman but i knowing it now! and i think it is not bad!

 

[Leo]

I prefer Longman.but I don't recommend it if you are a beginner.Its definitions are a little complicated.If you are a beginner,I suggest Cambridge

 

[زار]

I use Longman & Webster and I'm satisfied

 

[mahdiar__m]

I think longman is very suitable for main words and useful words but for specialist words for instance special disease we can use OXFORD or meriam webster

 

[a.khakpour77]

Longman!
