This new, updated range of Everest Dictionaries, based on an intricate, rational lexical synthesis that ensures a coherent and easy-to-understand response for each of the reference levels required, fully meets the needs of students and scholars alike.
This collection of Everest Dictionaries offers a wide variety of titles, each one of which is adapted to suit different uses and reference needs. They range from pocket dictionaries designed to provide a fast, convenient general-interest response to those for classroom use; from dictionaries intended for those beginning to read to others for people who understand the vast lexical wealth of the Spanish language. The original titles they have been given reflect these differences, along with the format and the number of words and definitions included, which ranges from 20,000 to 80,000.
Complete and accurate, the definitions respond to the real and tangible need to provide a suitable, powerful working tool endowed with a high pedagogical value. This allows students to find a quick, adequate solution to the difficulties involved in the increasingly technical terminology that is demanded of them as they progress in their studies.
Other features are grammatical appendices - which, according to the format, become more and more complete - and the inclusion - both in the headwords and the meanings - of Latin American expressions and neologisms and even additional grammatical remarks for each of the latter.
Several full colour thematic illustrations.
The letters "ch" and "ll" have been organized under "c" and "l", in accordance with the alphabetical criterion adopted by the Academies of the Spanish Language of Spanish Speaking Countries.
