5.0 out of 5 stars Best available dictionary of Australian English, December 17, 2003

This review is from: The Macquarie dictionary (Hardcover)
You will not find a better dictionary of the Australian language than this one.

While there is no other, this is a fair dinkum effort at documenting English as she is spoke in the land down under.

Where else would you find out what a sheila, a drongo or a goolie is?

Can't be recommended more highly.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's okay, February 10, 2010

This review is from: The Macquarie dictionary (Hardcover)
This dictionary is an alright piece of work -- I find it lacking in historical references, and I would not recommend that one use this as their only (or even their number one) reference dictionary. I find that the Complete Oxford English Dictionary is far superior, but this one does an okay job.
