Question

Which statement about dictionaries is true?

Answer 1

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "An unabridged English-language dictionary is a shortened dictionary for everyday use, and it is the dictionary that most people have in their homes and offices."

Answer 2

C)  An unabridged dictionary of the English language attempts to cover all the words in the language and gives information on each word’s history.

The word “abridged” means to have been reduced in length by getting rid of extra information and only presenting the basics.  If something is unabridged, it will be understood to be free of the removal of any information.  Thus, an unabridged dictionary will be as comprehensive as possible and provide as much information about the words as possible, too, such as parts of speech, etymology, pronunciations, etc.
