Synopsis :

This thoroughly revised and updated new edition of the standard dictionary for advanced learners of English contains thousands of new words, increased coverage of phrasal verbs, idioms and American English, greater focus on pronunciation and stress, as well as appendices on irregular verbs, punctuation and weights and measures. The edition also provides notes to clarify points of semantic or grammatical difficulty, and an introduction in simple English for the student plus a higher-level foreword for the teacher or lecturer.
