big help

This dictionary is a great product for students taking Spanish courses. It has everything you need. Really a great buy!

Get it!

This is an awesome dictionary which contains most of the uncommon words and definitions that I'm searching for :).. Bought it for a great price and I haven't got anything negative to say about it!

A Little Jewel

This is by far the best Spanish-English dictionary I have had. Others include Merriam-Webster, New World International, and Larousse (bought in Mexico.) This dictionary is the most updated and complete I have seen. I was impressed when I found the spanish word "pendejo," which is a relatively modern, kind-of a bad word, still it included a quite accurate definition in English. It is loaded with different meanings for the same words, and real-life examples of how to use the words in context. For example, I looked up the English word "end;" which is a very versatile word. It listed about 15 to 20 meanings, each with a context example. In particular I was impressed with "We'll never hear the end of it" translated as "Nos lo repetira toda la vida," which more literally would translate back as "He/She will bring it up for the rest of our lives," which is a common way of saying the same thing in Spanish. Phrase-translation like this conveys the full meaning and throws the words out the window. The paper and print quality are excellent. The size is quite handy, midsize: not pocket size, but not full college textbook size either. Generally I like paperbacks, but it did not fare very well when my one-year-old pulled it off the shelf.

What a dictionary!

Bueno, la primera cosa es que no he leido las palabritas ni el diccionario pues no puedo decir. Pero que bonito parece! No me digas que no sabes lo que estoy diciendo porque se puede ahorita por la manera de este libro!

It's the best.

Moderately priced, this book does not short change you on vocabulary. Each word defined is given in context, whether going from English to Spanish or Spanish to English, along with abundant idiomatic uses of the word. This is the perfect reference dictionary that can be carried with ease for reference anywhere; it won't leave you without the word you need and it won't encourage you to misuse the word or word forms, as is easy to do when "word shopping."
