## Description

Le Littré is a distinguished brand known for its comprehensive French language dictionary. Originally published in the late 19th century across 4 volumes and a supplement, this dictionary is a timeless resource. The definitions within Le Littré are enriched with literary citations spanning from the 10th to the 19th century, making it a treasure trove for language enthusiasts.

Unlike standard dictionaries, Le Littré is highly literary, filled with a plethora of quotes from various eras and adorned with usage tips or even admonishments to famous authors who take liberties with the French language. Emile Littré's fondness for words is evident throughout, as he even defends archaisms to preserve ancient poetry's beauty.

Recent updates in April 2018 and October 2017 have enhanced the dictionary's usability and restored lost Greek terms, enriching the overall experience for users. Explore the pages of Le Littré to delve into the beauty and richness of the French language.
