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 offers a more advanced option than the "Student Dictionary" while being more compact and affordable than the extensive hardcover version. It serves users without ready access to electronic products. Each entry is clearly defined, supplemented by thousands of example sentences that illustrate usage in context. By excluding biographical and geographical entries, the dictionary maximizes 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 clear language. Additionally, a style guide, detailed definitions of grammatical terms, and numerous usage notes provide valuable guidance on grammar and style. This reference book is ideal for high school students preparing for standardized tests, college students at institutions lacking online resources, and anyone seeking a conveniently sized print dictionary for home or office use.
