Each Oxford Beginner's Bilingual Dictionary is designed to offer
English speaking adult learners a comprehensive, straightforward
introduction to foreign languages, covering all the vocabulary
needed for the first years of study, along with notes on grammar
and usage and guidance on the culture where the language is spoken.
These easy-to-use references break from standard dictionary design.
Clear entries with examples showing how the language works in
context make it quick and simple to find the translation you're
looking for, and the bold, color layout makes the dictionary easy
to navigate, allowing you to get to grips with the language fast.
All main translations are preceded by an equals sign so that they
are instantly identifiable, and all parts of the entry are spelled
out in full, avoiding confusing jargon and abbreviations. Grammar
and usage notes throughout the text warn of possible translation
pitfalls, and thousands of example phrases show how the language is
used in real life.
At the center of each dictionary is a section devoted to useful
information on the country, countries, or regions where the
language is spoken. This includes background on lifestyles and
culture, tips on etiquette and interaction, and a phrasefinder that
provides handy phrases for use when traveling abroad. The
dictionary also includes a section on core vocabulary--all the
words you absolutely must know at a beginner's level, whether you
are a student, traveler, or business person.
The Oxford Beginner's Bilingual Dictionary is the perfect tool for
adult language learners who need basic vocabulary at their
fingertips fast.
