5.0 out of 5 stars Concise Oxford Paravia Italian Dictionary, 1 Feb 2004
By Deb Rees (Oxford) - See all my reviews
Being fairly new to language learning I'm still finding my feet as to what is important and what information you need to have. There is a wealth of stuff out there and a danger of overload. I already had a dictionary and therefore I wondered if it would be worth my while getting this book. However, I must say that it's made a huge difference to me.

I find the dictionary particularly good because there is a very good selection of words such as "participles" and "phrases". This means that you're not left to guess what the meaning of a word is as you think you've translated it. The likelehood is that the very phrase that you want is there. I have found it very up to date and full of useful modern, colloquial phrases that I can use.

I also find it very clearly set out and easy to use. All in all well worth adding to my ever expanding Italian collection!

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, 29 Nov 2004
By A Customer
excellent quality, quite comprehensive and packed full of words. I particularly liked the technical notes and very extensive lists of expressions for verbs which can have varried meaning in english such as 'fare' and 'stare'.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent dictionary., 4 Nov 2004
By A Customer
This is a very useful dictionary which gives some examples of usage as well as translations of words. Easy to use. Small enough to carry in a bag (not pocket-sized though).

2.0 out of 5 stars A Very Mixed Bag...
This can't make up its mind whether to be primarily an English-Italian dictionary for English people; or an Italian-English-dictionary for Italian people. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievably amazing!
I must say this dictionary is unbelievably amazing! It is far more than what I expected. My best wishes for all those who are behind its compilation. God bless you all!
