Customer Reviews

Excellent complement to curriculum

My daughter is learning Spanish via computer curriculum and my rusty memory. This book has been a tremendous aid in building vocabulary, as well as bringing understanding to the conjugation of verbs. Its ease of use makes her bring it to our workplace so she can converse with the bilingual people there.

Must-Have for learning Spanish

This is the only spanish-english dictionary I've ever owned. I've used several over the 8 years that I've spent learning Spanish, but this is by far the best one. It's lay-out is very easy to read/understand, plus there's great conjugations, examples, etc. that make it very user-friendly. Not to mention, there's tons of words that you don't find in many Span-Engl dictionaries.

Big book in a small package

This is a very powerful mini dictionary at a very competitive price. It contains explanations, examples and phrases making it far more useful for travel than the smaller pocket dictionaries. It has also replaced my desk dictionary as it contains more recent words, is better organized and easier to use. If you're looking for a "one-size-fits-all" book this one is worth checking out.

Great student or traveler reference

This book packs a lot of bang for your buck. Being the third dictionary I've owned, I am very pleased. Contains great phrasing examples and is well-organized. Has 80,000 entries, including modern terms and expressions. And it's small enough that you can pack it around with you! I highly recommend this as your choice of dictionary.
