About this title

From the Publisher:

Collins Italian Dictionary Plus is one of a series of practical dictionaries designed for the general user. As well as all the vocabulary required by the major examining boards, it gives full coverage of business and computing terms and a wide range of idioms and illustrative phrases to aid comprehension and self-expression in Italian. The emphasis is firmly on contemporary vocabulary, with clear signposting of differences in meaning guiding the user to the appropriate translation.

"Keyword" entries in both languages give in-depth treatment of the more complex words such as "get", "do", "more", "in" etc, and the dictionary also includes descriptions of cultural differences like Bank Holidays, Hallowe'en and District Councils.

The "Plus" feature of the dictionary is a section entitled "Italian in Action", which provides hundreds of phrases whose key elements have been translated, giving an invaluable guide to self-expression both in writing and in
conversation, with sections on written correspondence, the telephone and e-mail.

Collins Italian Dictionary Plus meets all your language needs, giving full coverage of contemporary vocabulary and usage in a single handy volume. It really is two books in one!
