Hi
Just wondering how to correctly cite a dictionary, in particular Merriam-Webster (online).
They give the follwing example on their website :
Retrieved May 8, 2011, from http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hacker
hacker. 2011. In Merriam-Webster.com .
However if I put it in Endnote I get stuff like this “enhance. (2011).”
What would be the in-text citation look like?
Thanks!

I use APA 6 as style and dictionary entry as type.
Just a comment about the APA format for online dictionaries. The format provided on the Merriam-Webster.com site (per alexl’s first posting) isn’t following APA 6 guidelines as retrieval dates are no longer needed and the url link should be placed last:
hacker (n.d.). In Merriam-Webster.com . Retrieved from http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hacker
Hi
I have the same question, (how to reference Merriam Webster.com ) but in my case using Harvard formatting. Can you tell me please?
