ABOUT THIS BOOK
A concise, authoritative, up-to-date guide to Spanish and English
The University of Chicago Spanish–English Dictionary has long set the standard for concise bilingual dictionaries. Portable yet remarkably thorough, the dictionary enables users to find the precise equivalents of the words and phrases they seek.
Completely bilingual, the book focuses on two contemporary international languages, American English and a worldwide Spanish rooted in both Latin American and Iberian sources.
The sixth edition has been updated with six thousand new words and meanings selected for their frequency of use, rising popularity, and situational necessity. In order to best represent the dynamic and increasingly connected cultures of three continents, this edition features enhanced coverage of the vocabulary associated with four areas of increasing global importance: medicine, business, digital technology, and sports.
Clear, precise, and easy to use, The University of Chicago Spanish–English Dictionary continues to serve as the essential reference for students, travelers, business people, and everyone interested in building their linguistic proficiency in both Spanish and English.
