Reduced from 11.95, this substantial hardback dictionary is designed for students of Spanish at all levels. As well as covering a wide general vocabulary, it concentrates on those areas of idiomatic Spanish which cause difficulties to English-speaking learners. Great stress has been placed on making Spanish as accessible as possible by use of examples. A large proportion of these are complete sentences which can be re-used by the student to suit his/her own needs.

The dictionary's main features are:

* Over 64,000 examples to illustrate the two languages in use;

* Grammar and usage notes in the text in English, on the problem areas of Spanish;

* In-depth coverage of words that cause difficulty;

* Idioms are clearly marked as such, and are given in context;

* A completely new and very user-friendly approach to the treatment of Spanish verbs;

* Latin-American Spanish included in both sections of the dictionary.

* Produced in the UK by a team of British and Spanish lexicographers for Richmond Publishing, a division of Santillana SA, one of Spain's largest and most respected publishing houses.
