Everything about Canadian Oxford Dictionary totally explained
The
Canadian Oxford Dictionary is a
dictionary of
Canadian English. First published by
Oxford University Press Canada in
1998, it quickly became the standard dictionary reference for Canadian English. Oxford maintains a permanent staff of
lexicographers in Canada, led by editor
Katherine Barber.
The
Canadian Oxford Dictionary second edition contains 300,000 entries, including about 2,200 true
Canadianisms. It also provides information on Canadian pronunciation and on Canadian spelling, which has features of both
British and
American spellings –
colour,
centre, and
travelling, but
tire,
aluminum, and
program. The second, updated edition of the dictionary was published in 2004.
It is used by most major Canadian newspapers, publishing houses, and the Canadian government. The influential
Canadian Press Stylebook follows the
Canadian Oxford Dictionary. The
dictionary was a publishing success, staying on Canadian bestseller lists for over a year, something quite unusual for a reference book.
Other Canadian English dictionaries
Two other major Canadian English dictionaries are the
ITP Nelson Canadian Dictionary and the
Gage Canadian Dictionary.
