It's a "Pocket Dictionary" only if you're a *giant*
Larousse has always been my go-to, and I'm going back to France next month and I wanted just a little something to keep in my bag in case I forgot some common word. This is NOT a pocket-dictionary!

This review is from: Larousse Pocket French/English English/French Dictionary/Larousse De Poche (Paperback)

This has helped me through some situations where I never even thought would be able to help me. It is easy to navigate through and is so useful to any French scholar, new or seasoned. |
