the same dictionary you have
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Sentence：Where can I buy the same dictionary as you have？
Q：
May I change the word of "as" to "that" or "what"？
And if can't, please help me to understand why can't.
ps：
Grammar book say：
The word "as" is for meaning "similar" and "that" is for "Exactly the same"，so I think both can be applied to the sentence.

"Where can I buy the dictionary that you have" would be acceptable as meaning 'another copy of the same publication'. "... the dictionary what you have" would be regarded as uneducated speech.
