A propos du livre

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

For the revised and enlarged fourth edition of this best-selling Spanish dictionary, D. Lincoln Canfield has made a number of improvements that will be welcomed by teachers, students, and travellers :

Revision of definitions throughout The addition of some two thousand new terms, especially scientific, technical, vocational, and computer terminology The addition of over a thousand synonymous expressions in parentheses to clarify multiple definitions and shades of meaning A new section demonstrating Spanish regular verb conjugations, in addition to the longstanding section on irregular ones A new section on the history of the Spanish language The addition of hundreds of regional usage designations

The University of Chicago Spanish Dictionary has been compiled for the general use of the American learner of Spanish and the Spanish-speaking learner of English, with special reference to New World usages as found in the United States and Spanish America. This new edition retains thorough syllabication and phonetic transcriptions and, at the sure tune, broadens the base of the dictionary and therefore its usefulness. Canfield has incorporated hundreds of current terms from such basic vocabularies as those of office workers, welders, machinists, builders, and automotive mechanics as well as important entries relating to computer science, telecommunications, food preparation and serving, and the environment. Indications of regional occurrence have been considerably refined, and Canfield's extensive discussion of regional dialects is complemented with maps denoting the location of distinctive features.
