    Hello there,

    I'm under 30 and I know how to use a dictionary, so I would say that the answer to your question is "yes". By the way, you misspelt the word "decipher".

    Oh! You mean that really really thick book that mom keeps under the living room table, so the lamp won't fall on floor. Yes I know how to use it. Sometimes I will even open it up and say to myself ......" oooohhh look and all the pretty words"

    I think my grandfather would have "decifered' that you are a knucklehead.

    All the answers you've gotten so far, prove that lots of folks under 30 know how to use a dictionary, but hun, I agree with you, there are a heck of a lot who don't seem to know how to use one...... *sigh*

    Sometimes the gibberish has me scratching my head in wonder !

    I was tempted to ask this very same question. Even if they don't know how to use a dictionary you would think they could use the spell check. It's the click of a button.
