Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Ideal for college and advanced high school students, this new paperbound reference book from the editors of the American Heritage Dictionaries serves those needing a more advanced dictionary than the "Student Dictionary," yet more compact and affordable than the extensive hardcover edition. It is particularly beneficial for users without easy access to electronic resources. Each entry features clear definitions and thousands of example sentences illustrating word usage in context. The book omits biographical and geographical entries, maximizing space for essential vocabulary. A gazetteer at the back lists countries, states, and capitals, while hundreds of word history notes explain the evolution of words in straightforward language. Additionally, a style guide, comprehensive definitions of grammatical terms, and numerous usage notes offer valuable guidance on grammar and style. This reference book is an essential tool for high school students preparing for standardized tests, college students in resource-limited environments, and anyone who prefers a conveniently sized print dictionary for home or office use.
