Oct 30, 2017 at 0:37 comment added MSalters A slightly philosophical question (at least for English) is whether there is such a thing as all usages. French is defined by l'Académie française, but English has no official standard. A French dictionary can therefore be incorrect because it deviates from the prescript of l'Académie, but not an English dictionary.

On the other hand, what is universally agreed to be the most comprehensive dictionary available, OED, gives the caveat that it does not include all the words (never mind all the senses) in the English lexicon.
