Answer

I think 'goog' is a cool word, which adds spice and variety to an otherwise dull sentence.

Answer

ı would say "well"...

Answer

"Oh well" is a common phrase that doesn't really mean anything. It is like saying, that's fine" or "okay."

If you say, "Oh good." That is giving your approval.  It is like saying,  "Really?" or "That's great!"

So, it depends on the context of the sentence and your intended meaning.

Answer

"well"   "Oh, well..." is a sentence that doesn't really mean anything, but is a common conversational filler, giving the speaker time to absorb the request "I'd like some information about a good English dictionary" and formulate her response "Have you ever used a dictionary?" Just "Well" works too.

On the other hand, "Oh well!" without the comma between Oh and well, and often with an exclamation point, means something else entirely, more like "Too bad"
