ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

Excellent tool
~ Written on May 6, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

This book is very helpful. It covers a lot of vocabulary and gives accurate translations. The explanation is very clear. I bought a used one, so it did not cost me a lot. However, one needs a working knowledge of French to make best use of this dictionary.

It was alright.

The product was heavier than I hoped it would be. I actually owned the Pocket dictionary, but I lost it. I recommend you buy the Pocket dictionary because of it's lighter, although, it's not pocket sized.

practical, bilingual and even enriched with small cultural notes

As a student of both English and French languages, this seems to be the perfect dictionary for me. If I don't know a word in a language, I take a look at the other and vice-versa.

Comme un étudiant autant d'anglais que de français, ça me semble le dictionnaire parfait, peut-être. Si je ne connais pas un mot dans une langue, je le cherche dans l'autre et vice versa. Voilà!

Great IPA for vocal music majors

Great IPA for vocal music majors

I bought this product for a Voice Diction class I am taking. It was surprisingly hard to find dictionaries with accurate IPA for as many languages as I needed (German, French, Italian, Hebrew, Russian...etc). Larousse had a great product so I bought three of them and intend on getting more when I need them. If any of you vocal music majors out there need the dictionary for the IPA and as a guide to pronunciation, this is a great product and I highly recommend. Thanks!

Comprehensive yet easy to use.

I purchased this dictionary because I was studying for an upcoming exam- it was a translation exam and I was allowed to have only one dictionary at my side. This was it ! I passed in no small part due to the ease-of-use and the clarity of the definitions.

The typeface is easy to read and the multiple definitions are clear and easy to understand. I found the translations to be helpful even when facing idioms and proverbs in reading. The number of entries is very good for a dictionary this size- it's certainly not pocket-sized, but it's not a brick, either. It's a perfect student dictionary for levels beginner through intermediate (advanced students may, of course, need something more specialized.)

Highly recommended !
