Oxford Learner’s Pocket Dictionary

Description

This compact dictionary has been specially designed for the learner of English. It deals with a general vocabulary of more than 1 7,000 items in sufficient detail to meet many of the reference needs of students, particularly at intermediate level.
Even a dictionary small enough to shp into a pocket or handbag must try to serve and harmonize certain basic reference needs. At times the learner will simply wish to check a spelling or trace the meaning of a word he has met for the first time. But he will also look to the dictionary to help him use new vocabulary acceptably: he v/ill want to compose as well as comprehend.
