Compact and concise

This was a present for my son’s friend (15) who loved it.
It has everything you could possibly need in it. A massive difference from the clunky dictionary that I carried around Mexico 25 years ago!

Un poco grande pero es normal con todo el contenido que tiene. Creo que ahora mismo es de los mejores.

スペイン語を勉強するにあたり、英語に慣れているので日本語スペイン語辞典よりも英語スペイン語のほうが理解しやすく、本格的な辞書に引けを取らない内容。何より手頃

the best dictionary for learning
Reviewed in the United States on 19 May 2014Verified Purchase
I recommend this dictionary to individuals whom I am tutoring in Spanish because it tells you when a word is vulgar or only used in one particular country or region. Most dictionaries, incredibly, do not include this sort of information and the student is likely to say something that isn't generally understood outside one particular country, or even really offensive.
As an example, "catch" is basically never a vulgar word in English, but the first entry in a Spanish-English dictionary is always listed as... [I'm not even going to spell it out, but it begins with a "c"] which also means... [um, again I'm not going to spell it out but it begins with "F"]. You must be fairly fluent to know when you can actually say that particular word beginning in "C" without it being an instant joke. The Oxford dictionary helps you out with a notation "vulg" (vulgar) for that "C" word, which clues you in that you'd be better off choosing one of the words listed next in the entry, like agarrar, detener, etc.
The Oxford dictionaries and Larousse dictionaries are the only ones that reliably provide this sort of information, in a clear, easy-to-understand format. Of those two, Oxford is the only one as far as I know who makes a compact (paperback) version under $15.
