Description

This new edition of the Collins COBUILD Learner's Dictionary is now in colour, and offers learners of English in-depth coverage of today's language. Now in an attractive two-colour layout, the new edition of the Collins COBUILD Learner's Dictionary has been designed for upper intermediate to advanced learners of English. Detailed coverage of today's language and additional information on grammar, frequency, usage and pragmatics make this dictionary ideally suited to learners of English. This colour edition offers all the traditional features which have made the COBUILD range so popular -- corpus-based text with simple explanations in full sentences, examples of real English from the Bank of English, and useful grammatical information shown in the Extra Column. In addition, hyphenation points have been shown for all words, to help with this difficult area of English. The Collins COBUILD Learner's Dictionary is the complete reference tool for upper intermediate to advanced learners of English, and provides invaluable guidance to students wishing to study English at this level.
