Dictionaries

I'm not sure if you've ever thought about the dictionaries and their enteries. Some definitions put you in a circle so that you need to refer to many other words to understand the meaning. And in some cases you don't get it.
But there are some dictionaries on everybody's mind which are closer to the real world, giving you a complete sense of the term. Today I received an email with words and their meanings. To many of us, such kinds of stuff may look weird or just funny. But I think that we have to think deeply:
