The first volume of the ninth edition of the dictionary was published in 1982, the academicians were in the letter \u2018s\u2019 a little more than a year ago \u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>We can make fun of their \u2018relative\u2019 slowness, but we can no longer say that they do not live with their time.<\/strong>. The Academy\u2019s digital portal, which has just been inaugurated, is a great surprise. It offers a simple and responsive interface, with a clear and neat graphic design. Ergonomics and user experience without real flaws. The French Academy\u2019s dictionary website can be consulted on a computer. It is compatible with smartphone or tablet mobile devices.<\/p>\n<h2>The Academy\u2019s online dictionary will offer all nine existing editions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"a_dvp\">For this inauguration, you have access to the text of the 9<sup>e<\/sup>\u00a0edition, for the time being available up to the letter S. The visitor also has access to the whole of the 8<sup>e<\/sup>\u00a0edition. For each entry, it is also possible to compare the definition of the two versions with one click. Eventually by the end of the year all other editions of the Dictionary will be available online. 325 years after its first paper edition, all content will be available online for free by all, at any time, from anywhere.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The interface is very simple to tame. The search term is entered in the input field and the dictionary definition is displayed immediately at lightning speed. The tool also displays in a small list the terms that are approaching or have a close spelling.
