5.0 out of 5 stars The clearest reference work on the French language today, 5 Oct 2001
By R. WEST-SOLEY "raldon" (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
No question about it, Collins have got the right idea when it comes to bilingual reference. I already own the German and Spanish counterparts to this French volume, and I had every confidence that it would be as comprehensive, clear and on the ball as the other two on my bookshelf.

Full of useful contexts for almost every entry, it's not only a reference but a great learning tool. As a language teacher I can use it as a reliable source of French words in active use, ranging from colloquialisms to elevated, literary styles. This dictionary has it all!

The addition of a pronunciation guide on CD was an added bonus, and will be very useful in the classroom.

Highly recommended for anyone working with French!

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb - Simply the best!, 6 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This is simply an excellent dictionary - very easy to use, a good layout, packed full of relevant idioms with definitions - this dictionary would suit both the casual learner and serious student. Various other helps are included but its best strength is the depth of 'example definition' provided whlist still being dead easy to navigate.

5.0 out of 5 stars a fantastic dictionary, 22 Aug 2001
By A Customer
I love this dictionary. I've been using it (in different editions) for 17 years. I find it to be the most accurate guide to French there is. Other dictionaries (which shall remain nameless) can be laughably out-of-date. Oh go on then - beware of ones beginning with "H". The Robert-Collins comes out with the occasional dubious translation but on the whole is an excellent dictionary.

By far the best French dictionary on the market - clear, accurate and up to date. Could do with some more 'street' language, but maybe that's best left to the 'net and other more... Read more
