Updating the dictionary, be it the dictionary of "Foreign words" or "Explanatory dictionary", should occur regularly, because the language in its development does not stand still. Keeping track of updates to generally accepted norms is easy, provided you have an electronic version of the dictionary. What if you own a printed book?

Step 3
Compare this information with the information you already have on your computer. Those words and dictionary entries that are missing there, fill in the copied electronic version. Click the "Download" link if the site provides such an opportunity.

If the information on the site is presented only in text form, copy the text you need and paste it into your dictionary, or create a separate Word document, where you will make additions.
Step 5
If your dictionary is not an electronic document, but a printed book, then on the page https://www.google.com/ in the search bar enter the query "download the updated explanatory dictionary …", then select the latest version and save the download on your PC
Step 6

It is enough only once a week to check for updated versions of the dictionary required for work on the Internet. In this case, the key phrase will be the query "updated dictionary of foreign words", hammered into the search engine.
