5 out of 5 stars Excellent Full-Sentence Examples   September 13, 2004
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book is overflowing with examples, examples, examples! I'm an intermediate student with at least half-a-dozen dictionaries, and this is probably the most helpful.

The only weakness -- because there are so many examples, some fairly common words aren't defined at all.

Still, well worth buying.



4 out of 5 stars one of the best.   January 29, 2004

A very very practical book that made you enjoy while learning Spanish. I never seen another dictionary better than this. I wish they had a CD of spoken spanish going with it. The reason I give a 4, because the paper turned yellow with time, so I have to set it aside from my other precious books. It's contagious, it's not acid-free, archival, a term they use in photography in conserving prints. By the way, I bought 4 of those books to use at home and in my offices.


5 out of 5 stars This book is awsome   November 4, 2001
I have had to learn to speak spanish and this book has helped me so much. I find most of the words and idioms that are found in it to be pretty much up to date and usefull.


5 out of 5 stars A Indispensible Dictionary for Language Learners   November 3, 2000
  5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This, along with a lover who speaks the target language, is one of the truly indispensible tools of language learning. Language learners typically work their tails off learning new words only to to be laughed at when they misuse them. This dictionary goes the extra step and shows the sense of how words are used with generous, fully translated example sentences. Classroom teachers should acquire whole sets for daily use. Individuals should get a copy for frequent reference. You will never use a standard Spanish-English dictionary again.
