Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A dictionary for kids etc.This dictionary is basically for high school level kids and as such it contains only the most basic of words in Spanish. Many of the acceptances, or words in this book, have definitions which use words that, themselves, are not to be found as acceptances in the dictionary. The definitions, however, are clearly written. Rating: - The least complete Spanish dictionary publishedThe dictionaries produced by the RAE are extraordinary for the large number everyday Spanish words that are excluded or only partially defined. A fun after-dinner game with friends is to sit down and guess which common words (not necessarily obscene) are not included. Hours of fun for people who enjoy language - and for this reason alone I recommend this dictionary. Rating:  - Indispensable para todo aquel que habla EspañolJusto lo que estaba buscando.

Quieres evitar el dequeismo? El diccionario define. Comúnmente usas una palabra no adoptada de otro idioma, el diccionario no sólo te aclara si es ... Read More Rating: - A Dubious Dictionary of DoubtsThe English language is like a massive tsunami that threatens to engulf, sink or obliterate other ways of speaking. Anglicisms (words migrating from English into other tongues) are so prevalent and powerful that the rulers of other languages have for many years made battle against the intruders. To no avail, of course. Did I say "tsunami"? There is no such word in Spanish. Nor, for that matter, does "sunami" appear in the last (22nd) edition of the Dictionary of the Royal Academy of Spain. ... Read More Rating: - Just what I needed.This is a must-have book. It's not just a common dictionary, it's a very nice reference book on how to speak correctly spanish, focusing on those words that usually are written/spoken in different ways and that are hard to tell wich one is the correct one. It's a very nice effort from the language academies of spanish spoken countries. |
