Description:
The World Book
Dictionary was developed by
experts to be clear, informative, and easy to understand.
The last thing a dictionary
needs to be is
intimidating. Yet many adult dictionaries are just that. This
dictionary, from
the editors of The World Book Encyclopedia, combines all the features
of a
traditional dictionary with the readability of World Book. The result
is an
ideal student dictionary that can be used for a lifetime.
Words likely to be used by students are defined in a simple manner for
better
comprehension. The Dictionary also presents informative illustrative
sentences
that help clarify meanings.
But this is by no means an abridged reference work. It features more
than
225,000 entries, 3000 illustrations, notes on how to use prefixes,
suffixes,
capitalization and punctuation, pronunciation guides, and more. It's
the final
word in state-of-the-art dictionaries.
