This new edition has been fully revised and updated to offer up -to-date vocabulary and language support for student's learning Spanish at GCSE and beyond. All the current exam board vocabulary is included and curriculum words are flagged with a key symbol. Word Tips provide information on common grammatical errors and confusable words, while interesting cultural information is specially picked out in Culture boxes. To support students building their range of vocabulary and get them using it confidently, all words are also given in appropriate example sentences so that students can see how to use them correctly. Extra grammar support is given with full verb tables, including English translations of the different tenses, to help with translating to and from Spanish. In the centre of the dictionary, the illustrated thematic supplement includes questions, answers, comments and phrases and photocard activities to model those faced by students in their exams, It has a contemporary look and feel and covers topics such as technology, free-time activities, customs and festivals, social and global issues, travel and tourism, current and future study and employment. Review: Great to look at, not so practical to use - This is lovely in some respects, but it's not practically useful. There are not very many words, so it's not useful as a actual dictionary. The words that are included... well, this is definitely a british english resource, and while british english is entirely readable, it's not the most useful to get a precise definition of a word. There are many words that are not symmetrical so the spanish one is missing that is provided in the english definition. For squash, it lists a beverage and a sport, but not a vegetable or a verb, which isn't helpful to the general american. There are many nice sentences for the words that are there, though, and I do like the verb conjugation layouts. Review: Great reference tool for learners of Spanish - Good product for my Year 8 son for use in Spanish lessons in school Easy to use and offers Spanish to English and English to Spanish
