There are several thing which don't work with XeLaTeX but with PDFLaTeX. You hardly switch between them for no good reason, especially for longer, existing documents.
@MartinScharrer The OP need not accept this answer if it is not suitable. Nonetheless he and the question readers will know there is a way not to struggle with such "minor" language problems, which might add up and become the reason to switch.
@MartinScharrer No, but they probably change for lots of little reasons and this might be one of them. Moreover, someone stumbling on this question might not notice that it is specific to pdflatex, whence the comment "works in xelatex" is useful. Perhaps as a comment (as it now is) instead of an answer, but that's as much a matter of space as anything else.
Could you please guide me to load the oxford dictionary in LaTeX.
I am using MikTeX 2.5 with \usepackage[english]{babel}.
Yes i need to load the oxford dictionary hyphenation patten in LaTeX ..
@AndrewStacey Yes, with TeX, pdfTeX and XeTeX the hyphenation patterns are loaded at format creation; the initial message lists always all the loaded pattern files.
@AndrewStacey MiKTeX used to be very conservative about them and loaded only American English, French, German and New German patterns. There are innumerable messages on forums about "No hyphenation patterns loaded".
@JosephWright Polyglossia acts differently: if patterns for a language are unknown, it resorts to no hyphenation, rather than using AmEnglish patterns. That's a change I proposed to F. Charette.
@JosephWright Some parts of babel are always loaded (hyphen.cfg)
@JosephWright It can be confusing, I agree. The loaded part doesn't change features with respect to a "non babel" LaTeX format, apart defining the infrastructure on which babel hooks if babel.sty is loaded.
The "Babel <v. 3.8m>" bit is on line 51 of hyphen.cfg.
It might be sensible to change the message to list only the loaded hyphenation patterns and, perhaps, telling that "LaTeX is ready for Babel <v3.8m>" or something like this.

@egreg LyX is the Windows of the LaTeX world: it aims to hide the inner workings of the system from the user as much as possible, and thereby ends up confusing many of them. Of course, there are skilled LyX users, just as there are skilled Windows users, but in my experience, for naive users both are a bad idea.

I was sitting in on a colleague's stats class (which uses R) and it took about 15 minutes for the Windows users to figure out how to get the dataset they downloaded for the class into the working directory for R. The Mac and Linux users got it instantly.
hehe... I didn't know there was a maximum number of usable votes per day, and a badge for using them! Now I'll have to wait to up-vote some questions/answers.
@lockstep Thanks. But I still need to answer two more biblatex questions for the biblatex tag badge. I just have to hope that questions come up when you're asleep. :-)
@StefanKottwitz I managed to download the images too. Sometimes you end up with a non-compilable document (due to some bad HTML parsing), but in general it helps a lot. :)
