I would always choose the Oxford Dictionary.

For British(aka English)-English, Chambers is excellent.


The word in is bold san serif typeface with the explanations in normal, serif typeface - makes it easy to find what you are looking for. Also gives examples of uses for many of the words.


The Concise Dictionary has some 1400 pages, not exactly portable but perfect for the desk.


BTW, I used Oxford for a number of years but since changing over to Chambers some years ago, my Oxford one has just been collecting dust.
