Other key features include warning symbols to identify slang and informal language, and special usage notes to help users find the right translation for frequently used words which are difficult to translate, because they appear in many different contexts. A unique phrasefinder groups together words and expressions from topics such as emergencies, shopping, and travelling, giving you instant access to the phrases you need.
All of these features are packed into a pocket-sized, durable format, and, with a brand-new text design and layout, this dictionary is more accessible and easy to use than ever before. It is the perfect language guide for holiday-makers, business people, and travellers.

Par contre, les formules idiomatiques sont un peu limitées.
Its ultra-modern and up to date with the latest slang, making it perfect for double checking unexpected words in newspapers, magazines and recent novels, and is small enough to slip easily into a pocket or bag to carry around. The text is clear, the translations succint and there are handy box-outs with background information about particularly French establishments where a word for word translation would leave you clueless. With verb tables at the back and many pointers and grammatical niggles mentioned in the main entries, there's an awful lot of useful stuff crammed into a very small space.
Ideal little companion for home, work or on the move, I was most impressed.
