Color? Who cares, but a great little dictionary,
This review is from: The Oxford Color German Dictionary: German-English, English-German; Deutsch-Englisch, Englisch-Deutsch (Paperback)
The main reason I bought this dictionary was because it is hard bound. Not hard backed, but _bound_, ie, the pages are sewn in. I was sick of my other pocket dictionaries that started to self destruct the moment I started to use them. It was a nice surprise to find out that this is a VERY GOOD dictionary. Sure, it's not as good as full-sized Cassell's or Oxford-Duden, but for the size (portable) and cost, it's great. Many idioms are included, and I'm finding that I reach for it even when home with my big Cassell's within reach. Ein guter Kauf!

Best Ever!,
By habblie (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Oxford Color German Dictionary: German-English, English-German; Deutsch-Englisch, Englisch-Deutsch (Paperback)
This German-English dictionary is the best I've ever seen in my 5 years of studying German, unless you want to go for a desk-sized monster. The blue print makes entries easy to find when you're trying to flip through the book quickly. This is especially useful in the middle of a conversation! The definitions are clear and go into great detail on variations and options, enabling you to find the best word choice. It also provides a comprehensive list of conjugations in both German and English to help you use the words you're looking up correctly.
Physically, this dictionary is very well constructed. In the many years I've had it the most it's suffered are bent corners and worn edges. It's not going to fall apart on you like many editions that cost more. I would reccommend this to any student or traveller.
