Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary
|
It is not only important, but, in a degree necessary, that the people of this country, should have an American Dictionary of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England, and it is desirable to perpetuate that sameness, yet some differences must exist. Language is the expression of ideas; and if the people of one country cannot preserve an identity of ideas, they cannot retain an identity of language. |

We offer tools that can help you dig into complicated patent information and make sense of all of the complexities in relation to your inventions and how you want to commercialize them. Certainly we are in business to make a few dollars, but we emphasize that our top priority is to provide IP intelligence (IPI) to help you succeed. With this in mind, we are in the process of developing ClubInnovate, an exclusive community for inventors.
