5.0 out of 5 stars Still a great study aid, 22 Aug 2005

By	J. McKay "teenage_tree_hugger" (Falkirk, Scotland) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Collins Express French Dictionary (Paperback)

This dictionary is a solid learning aid for those studying French at school, particularly teenagers, and is simply the old Collins Pocket Dictionary in a new cover. This is no bad thing, however; I have found it immensely useful as well as quite entertaining, with its interesting word games in the middle section. It also provides the user with essential grammar information and, as ever, those handy verb tables are included at the back of the dictionary. The colourful format is clear and absorbing, rather than the customary boring black font used in the majority of previous dictionaries, and this makes it easy to search for desired words. Perfect for Standard Grade/GCSE level French.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Dictionary but needs exceptionally large "pockets", 22 Jul 2005

By	Ms. L. C. Tolson "loutolson" (Coventry, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This dictionary is ideal and helped get me through my GCSE and A-Level French classes and exams with top marks. The fact that it uses colour is an advantage as it makes it much faster to consult and therefore much more accessible to the user.

It is very much up-to-date, including translations for word such as cybercaf�, digital camera, DVD, search engine, etc, which can definitely come in handy. Also coming in handy are the extra explanations included for the more essential vocabulary, for example key words that appear frequently or have several meanings in both languages.

This edition is also reasonably unique in that it includes 23 different word games in the centre, included to encourage the user to practice exploring the dictionary's content and retrieving information for a variety of purposes. This enables the user to use it more efficiently and effectively.

The only down-side I could possibly see would be for people wanting a "pocket" dictionary - this it isn't unless you have rather larger than normal pockets! It measure 15.5cm (6.2") x 11.2cm (4.35") and is slightly smaller than A5 size. Personally I find this ideal as it means it's a lot clearer and therefore a lot easier to read - ideal for students to have on their desk or for a traveller to have in their bag. This edition also comes with a semi-hardback plastic cover that protects it from damage, especially when thrown into the bottom of a bag, until retrieved for the next lesson!!!

In all it's an excellent buy, which I've still got and still refer to several years on.
