Excellent reference includes CD-ROM,
By Translator "translation" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oxford Collocations Dictionary (Paperback)
I work as a professional translator and editor and find that I use this book several times a day to find just the right word in English. For example, a German sentence might say that the writer was stuck in "strong traffic" (starker Verkehr), but in English we say "heavy traffic" (not "strong traffic"). This book helps you come up with the right adjective in English when you know that the literal translation of the foreign-language one doesn't sound right.
It is more complete than the "BBI" dictionary and comes with a free CD-ROM, which means that you can take it with you on your laptop without having to carry the book.

I love this book. It's very useful and easy to use dictionary that provides valuable help especially when trying to express your thoughts more native-speaker-like. The CD-ROM makes the dictionary portable as you can take it everywhere with your laptop. Also many excersises can significantly improve your English level. I definitely recommend this book to every student of English.
