1 ★ Doesn't work

4 ★ I really like this app. It makes me smile and I have a good time reading the definitions. The only - ONLY, mind you - request I have is that the app makers create a "favorite" section, where you can view all your favorite words so that way you remember them or you can show your friends. But otherwise, this app is great! I recommend it :)

5 ★ "MY throat is not misty-moisty no more," said the devil with sweet talk so sly, "No man likes the thunder squall better, my boys, or a good drenching or soaking than I...So hand me the hooch or snake medicine there in that jug with the diabolical smell and I'll tell you, my boys, With suspense or with joy about John Barleycorn, Heaven and perdition! It will fill me with an array of illusions that are sweet even when they are gone!" FROM JAMES MICHAEL CHAPESKIE

5 ★ I was introduced to this material when I was a young boy. Finding this app was great. Everyone should read through the material, it will give an alternate perspective of many words to anyone. I would like to see a "saved" section, or "favorites" area for the user to keep preferred words in. Just a suggestion.

5 ★ I love this old book. From the days when English was not just a language, but an art form. Bug: check out the "brain" entry. There is a formatting bug. I think underscores have replaced quotes or italics.

5 ★ Ambrose Bierce was brilliant. His stories, eg. Occurance at Owl Creek Bridge? He and Clemmons had sarcasm drawn to a fine point. Then Bierce vanished.

2 ★ I like the idea, but the search feature didn't work for me. I could not submit a search after typing a query. with google gBoard keyboard in android 7.0 on Nexus 6

5 ★ A wonderful reference of properly acerbic terms with which to flay those who insist upon believing that We, the People actually hold any power. ..

4 ★ Anyone short of words to use in their defence can stop here.

4 ★ I have followed the dark side since I was young now I have grown now and this look an excellent app to gain relevant research

4 ★ :-P

5 ★ I love Devils black magic strike.

1 ★ I hate it

4 ★ It's the floor... with sense... for broadminded people...

5 ★ Please add favorite option😈
