The Australian Oxford Dictionary, 2nd Edition, provides a comprehensive digital resource encompassing the full 1800-page content of this authoritative reference work. It serves as an essential guide to contemporary Australian English, featuring integrated sound files for pronunciation.

Developed from the extensive databases of the Australian National Dictionary Centre—including its evolving national corpus and research initiatives—the dictionary also capitalizes on the rich resources of the Oxford English Dictionary. This combination ensures an authoritative and current representation of Australian language usage.

This edition is available at a retail price of A$115 (excluding sound files). It is a product of Australian craftsmanship and innovation.

  • Over 170,000 headwords, phrases, and derivatives
  • More than 200,000 indexed entries
  • Approximately 35,000 etymological notes and word origins
  • In excess of 12,500 encyclopedic entries covering places, history, culture, and significant themes
  • 64,000 IPA transcription entries for accurate pronunciation
  • Over 53,000 authentic Oxford sound files for pronunciation reference

The encyclopedic entries surpass those found in comparable Australian dictionaries by providing detailed contextual information. For instance, place-name entries go beyond geographic location to include insights into historical, economic, or political significance and cultural character.

A strong emphasis is placed on Australian culture and history, including comprehensive coverage of Aboriginal histories. The scope extends to include entries on political parties, religious organizations, historical events, mythological characters, fictional figures, and more. Additional appendices cover grammar, punctuation, notable Australian leaders, and collective nouns.

The accompanying iOS application enhances the dictionary's functionality through features such as:

  • Progressive lookup for rapid searches
  • Three-way cross-referencing index for thorough navigation
  • Search string normalization and wildcard pattern capabilities
  • Spelling verification with Australian-specific suggestions
  • Hyperlinked words within definitions for easy exploration
  • Fallback online search options for obscure or archaic terms and international slang
  • Compatibility with external thesauri and additional dictionaries
  • Seamless lookup across third-party applications with round-trip functionality
  • Automatic search history management
  • An "AI Teacher" feature offering detailed explanations and assistance in 98 languages tailored for ESL learners
  • An AI-enhanced anagram generator for word play and linguistic analysis
  • Bookmarking with folder organization and note-taking features
  • iCloud synchronization across devices
  • A "Word-a-Day" feature including TOEIC® & TOEFL® vocabulary lists
  • "Share" extension enabling searches within other apps with options to save results for later review
  • Support for external resources and enhancements catering to dyslexic and visually impaired users
  • Retina display optimization, multitasking support on iPad Pro (including Drag & Drop), DarkMode compatibility, integration with Siri, and support across iPhone, iPod, iPad, and macOS devices
  • No internet connection required once sound files are locally downloaded and installed

This dictionary is curated by Dr. Bruce Moore, one of Australia's most influential lexicographers. His editorial leadership ensures that the content reflects current trends in Australian language use—including neologisms associated with electronic communication—making it relevant not only for scholars but also for casual users interested in the evolving linguistic landscape.

The Australian Oxford Dictionary offers a detailed exploration of Australian English within the broader context of the English language. It aims to be both a practical reference tool and an engaging study of linguistic change.

This application is distributed with the express permission of Oxford University Press.

The Australian Oxford Dictionary represents more than a collection of colloquialisms; it is a scholarly examination of the wider English linguistic sphere.
