Hi, everyone. I would like to ask you about English dictionaries. Which one is the best? And if we compare with Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary (7th edition) and Macmillan English Dictionary for Advanced Learners, which you will recommend?

I don't know about dictionaries for those learning English, but the most popular and reliable dictionary we use is the Oxford English Dictionary (the OED).
Therefore I'd be more likely to suggest the former.
