Current Edition
North American tournament Scrabble currently uses the second edition of OWL (variously referred to as OWL2, OTCWL2, TWL2, and TWL06). This version was created by the National Scrabble Association (NSA) Dictionary Committee in late 2005 and took effect on March 1, 2006. OWL2 corresponds to the fourth edition of the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, but includes words that are not considered suitable for inclusion in that work.
The print version contains several errors which have been corrected on the National Scrabble Association's web site.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or edition:
“For me, Romanticism is the most recent and the most current expression of beauty.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
