Customer Reviews

Good support website

Nowadays I find myself look up words online more often then checking my hardcover dictionary. It is fast and costs me nothing. Buying a dictionary seems less important. Velazquez Spanish and English Dictionary have a support website called AskVelazquez.com. It is free, and I can ask questions, either for the new words that I can't find in the dictionary or grammar issues when I do the translation. I find this site very useful, and it makes my Velazquez Dictionary even more useful. Velazquez Spanish and English Dictionary also contain words from not just Spain and Mexico, but usages from Puerto Rico, Peru or Argentina. It is a very complete reference dictionary. I only wish there is an electronic version.

Simply the best

I work for a bilingual newspaper in Puerto Rico and this is by far the best Spanish/English dictionary I've ever encountered. Concise and linguistically modern, this dictionary will save you plenty of momentary confusion.

Should have bought this sooner

This would have saved me a headache or two. It gives the pronounciation from both sides of the language and gives extensive word usages throughout.
