■ Oxford School Spanish Dictionary

The Oxford School Spanish Dictionary is the perfect bilingual dictionary for pupils learning Spanish. The two sides of the dictionary are clearly divided into Spanish-English and English-Spanish, with an essential verb table list in the centre. The headwords are carefully selected to suit beginners, and particular attention is given to computing, word-processing, and ICT terms.

In line with syllabus requirements, there is a special section dedicated to vocabulary and phrases on life and culture in Spanish-speaking countries. The simple two-colour layout, the alphabet down the side of each page, and the large clear print will help pupils navigate around the dictionary and take them straight to the translation they are looking for. This dictionary is exceptionally easy to use, and comes in a handy pocket-size format with a durable linen-finish cover.

Ideal dictionaries for use in the classroom or at home, with excellent curriculum vocabulary coverage, verb tables with English translations, and cultural information and phrases. New look, new cover editions for 2012.
