This review is from: Larousse Concise French/English English/French Dictionary (Larousse Bilingual Dictionaries) (French Edition) (Paperback)
I have been studying french for several years. This is one of the best dictionaries that I've used. It is very resourceful. It has up-to-date, modern words and slang in both languages. It also has information on organizations and both cultures. It is truly one of the best books in my french library.

Easy to read,
By "tinggao" (Princeton, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Larousse Concise French/English English/French Dictionary (Larousse Bilingual Dictionaries) (French Edition) (Paperback)
This is a great dictionary. Compare to what other French dictionary I had, this one is the best. It is very easy to read, since the letter is pretty big. Paper and ink are good too, you won't get a BLACK hand after usin' this dictionary.
