About this Item
1 vol. ONLY of a 2-volume set. Unpaginated. 37.5 cm folio in full-leather. Binding has repaired hinges and corners with new spine label. Bookplate on front pastedown. Coloured pencil on front loose endpaper. Title page creased with small check mark at top. This volume contains English-language definitions of Spanish language terms. A Spanish teacher in London, Delpino maintained his dictionary contained thousands more words than any other dictionary of its kind, accents on the Spanish words and spelling based on the Real Academia Espanola. Critics have pointed out that Delpino's work is largely that of his predecessor, Peter Pineda. However, Delpino did add a dagger symbol to indicate the part of speech of an entry, as well as the added innovation of advice on how to pronounce English words. Seller Inventory # 102788
