Today, I want to introduce a different kind of dictionary. This dictionary has writen by Ambrose Bierce in 19th century. He was an American journalist.
This dictionary doesn't contain normal definitions. All its definitions are funny and negative.
For example: in a normal dictionary, the definition of dentist is "A kind of doctor, who looks after people's teeth.
But in this book the definition of dentist is ''a person who puts metal in your mouth and takes coins out of your pocket."
Or everybody knows who a star is? Now, look at the definition of star in the devil's dictionary:
"A person who has tried long time to become famous. Now she/he wears big sunglasses so people don't recognize her/him."
