On this day in 1755, Samuel Johnson’s A Dictionary of the English Language was published. Prior to this, spelling was mostly done phonetically and there were lots of variations. It took Johnson and his assistants nearly 10 years to assemble and it changed the way we use English.
Folks, here are the first two contributor lists for Issue 3. We thank these amazingly talented people for sending us their beautiful work. Issue 3 drops April 15. More lists coming soon.
