Book Description
From Book News, Inc. French/English words for some 28,000 objects are presented with the use of detailed drawings. Includes a large proportion of specialized words and technical terms for which visual identification is more direct than a verbal
definition. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Product Description: Now available in paperback editions, The Oxford-Duden Pictorial Dictionaries provide
parallel English and foreign word lists containing 29,000 items for each language. Based on the premise that pictures can more clearly convey certain kinds of information, these dictionaries present a list of vocabulary relating to a subject together
with a picture illustrating that subject.
Each double-page spread links the words by number to the picture situation drawn from everyday life; 384 sections cover a broad range of subjects in the fields of science, medicine, technology, industry,
commerce, and arts and leisure, including astronomy, automobiles, swimming, supermarkets, nuclear energy, nightclubs, and much more. Both English and foreign words appear on the same page for easy use. The dictionaries also provide fully alphabetized
indices in both languages which refer the reader not only to the various subjects and contexts in which a word is used, but also to the correct translation and vocabulary of the entire subject.
An essential reference for general readers,
translators, travelers, and business people, The Oxford-Duden Pictorial Dictionaries serve as an invaluable supplement to other foreign language guides.
The Oxford-Duden Pictorial French and English Dictionary, Second Edition has been completely
updated and revised to include the most recent innovations in science and technology and to offer increased coverage of all major fields of reference.
