The Oxford Latin Dictionary (or OLD) is the standard English lexicon of Classical Latin, compiled from sources written before AD 200. Begun in 1933, it was published in fascicles between 1968 and 1982; a lightly revised second edition was released in 2012.

The dictionary was created in order to meet the need for a more modern Latin-English dictionary than Lewis & Short's A Latin Dictionary (1879),[1] while being less ambitious in scope than the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae (in progress). It was based on a new reading of classical sources in the light of the advances in lexicography in creating the Oxford English Dictionary.
