Product Description

Product Description

There are certain kinds of information that can be conveyed more readily and clearly by pictures than by description and explanations. The Oxford-Duden Pictorial French and English Dictionary identifies over 29,000 objects by means of numbered illustrations, offering at a glance their French and English terms. This edition illustrates terminology in all major fields of reference, including science, technology, medicine, and business, the arts and entertainment, recreation and sport, flora and fauna, and typical situations in domestic and everyday life. Every vocabulary item is indexed in French and English so that the dictionary can be used in both directions. The subjects are organized thematically enabling the user to grasp the entire vocabulary relevant to a given situation or context. This new edition will be an invaluable supplement to any French-English or English-French dictionary.

5.0 out of 5 stars from the cosmos to the strip joint, 12 Jul 2001
As a regular writer to french colleagues and friends I find this amazing book able to cover topics which are way beyond those is available in good dictionaries, robert, larousse etc. It even allows you to find words which you didn't know in you own language!!but which you may know what it is used for.Like the dangly ropes on my brother's yacht! or the tool granda uses on his allotment to dig out the dandelions. It is not encyclopaedic but it nearly is. pete reid

3.0 out of 5 stars What No Computer Section!?, 18 Jan 2003
By A Customer
The Oxford-Duden Pictorial French & English Dictionary is up to the usual superb standard of all these publications, however the current (1996) edition has one astounding omission. There is no section for computers or the internet. As one of the main reasons for my purchase was for French computer vocabulary (the French do insist on inventing their own words, rather than using the American words like the rest of the world - good for them I say - 'logiciel' is much more elegant than 'software') so I feel a publication like the Duden Pictorial should by now have computer terminology included!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating resource for all French language users., 4 Feb 2001
By A Customer
I am so happy to have discovered this dictionary! It is as useful for learning the names of ordinary, everyday objects as it is for expanding your vocabulary into specialist technical areas. It is an essential resource for anyone who owns a holiday property in France or travels regularly. The index is easy to use and enables you to find an equivalent word in either French or English. The detailed line drawings are clear and well labelled. As a translator I use this dictionary regularly but have also recommended it to French language learners who have found it to be interesting and helpful.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
I was somewhat disappointed by this dictionary. Although it is comprehensive, almost all the illustrations are black and white and most are far too busy to be clear. Read more
