And there's seemingly no way to add a British Dictionary to Dictionary.app. That sucks something awful.

I've found it will often give a British English alternative, though. Is your system set to use British English as the system language?

It is, and it does, but the definitions are written in non-British English, so for particularly technical/specific stuff (which is the primary reason for me wanting to use a dictiomonary, it can be rather annoying!

Abso-bloomin'-lutely. I still use a proper breezeblock-sized dead tree dictionary, but the online one is adequate for definitions and the thesaurus. I also like the Wikipedia link built in. _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.

I have no ruddy clue what time is what today. The spring on my internal bioclock has gone 'sproing' and is currently poking out of the casing. Jon
