OXFORD-DUDEN PICTORIAL SPANISH / ENGLISH DICTIONARY

There are certain kinds of information that can be conveyed more readily and clearly by pictures than by descriptions and explanations. The Oxford-Duden Pictorial Spanish and English Dictionary identifies over 29,000 objects by means of numbered illustrations, offering at a glance their Spanish and English terms. This second edition has been revised and updated to reflect the most up-to-date changes in technology, science and medicine, industry and commerce and to offer even wider coverage of all major fields of reference, including the arts and entertainment, recreation and sport, flora and fauna and typical situations in domestic and everyday life. Over 1500 new items of vocabulary have been added relating to such diverse fields as photography, typesetting, personal computers, telecommunications and transport. Every vocabulary item is indexed in Spanish and English so that the dictionary can be used in both directions. The subjects are organized thematically enabling the user to grasp the entire vocabulary relevant to a given situation or context. This new edition will be an invaluable supplement to any Spanish-English or English-Spanish dictionary.
