How can I report incorrect information in the dictionary?

Asked 2 months ago
If you encounter incorrect information in the dictionary, it is important to address this concern appropriately. Dictionary.com, as a reputable online resource, values accuracy and user feedback. Typically, commonly-used websites like Dictionary.com offer mechanisms for users to report errors, suggest corrections, or provide feedback on entries. To report incorrect information, you should first look for a feedback or contact link on the specific page where you found the issue. This often includes options for submitting comments or suggestions directly related to that entry. In many instances, there may be a dedicated form or email address provided for users to share their observations about inaccuracies. When reporting an error, it is helpful to be as specific as possible. Include the word in question, the definition you believe is incorrect, and any correct information you would like to provide. This ensures that the editorial team can review your submission accurately and make necessary updates. Engaging with such feedback contributes to the continual enhancement of the dictionary's reliability and usefulness for all users.
