Customer Reviews

You can't beat LAROUSSE

Now I have papa bear, momma bear, and baby bear. The three sizes of Larousse dictionaries. They are all superb. You can't lug the large Larousse around with you everywhere and the baby larousse won't cut it at times on a difficult translation. So, this is right in the middle of that range. There aren't many times when this won't cut it. Recommended.

One of the best!

This is one of the best dictionaries on the market. The selection of words is great, and the layout is easy to read and easy to carry. I've used this book a lot and will continue to buy Larousse books!

Easy to read

This is a great dictionary. Compare to what other French dictionary I had, this one is the best. It is very easy to read, since the letter is pretty big. Paper and ink are good too, you won't get a BLACK hand after usin' this dictionary.

helpful, readable, comprehensive

I was translating a rather involved and esoteric webpage from French to English and picked this up to supplant a much weaker dictionary; I was not disappointed. It proved to be of great value.It's big, the entries are easy to work with, it covers slang, it has good pronunciation guides. Would serve one well in commercial, private or educational use.

Classic Winner

This has been my dictionary of choice for over 25 years. It captures the nuances of the french language and translates them into common sense English. Larousse has always been up-to-date in providing current slang and "street" language as is spoken every day in France. A priceless reference.
