Rating: Summary: An excellent dictionary at a reasonable price Review: Larousse Gran diccionario is one of the very best extensive Spanish/English dictionaries on the market today. This book is great for any bilingual learner that is beyond college level Spanish 1 or any bilingual translator. Some of the best features of this book are:-Contains Latin American vocabulary (not limited to Castilliana Spanish). -Extensive definitions to almost every non-regional specific (and some regional specific words) words. -Common uses and phrases are given for almost every word. -Basic English and Spanish grammar outline. -Low price for such a monumental book. -Larousse quality. Virtually every product and dictionary in Spanish that I have seen that Larousse publish is better than average quality at very competitive prices. If I was going to give this book a grade it would be an A+ for value, quality, ease of use, and extensiveness as a dictionary.
Rating: Summary: Spanish Teacher Review: Larousse has been the only dictionary line that I have ever recommened from high school to graduate school. You'll never go wrong with Larousse.

Rating: Summary: The only Spanish dictionary worth having! Review: Larousse's line of dictionaries is one of the most impressive in the foreign language department. This huge unabridged Spanish-English dictionary is incredible. It contains virtually every word any novice or expert would need to know. In addition, Larousse does a great job of discerning the different translations for the different usages of any given word. But the benefits do not stop there. The unabridged dictionary has an extensive genre-specific vocabulary, ranging from medicine to technology. There are also very detailed sections outlining both Spanish and English grammar and structure. In short, this unabridged dictionary is the definitive source for Spanish and English translations. Larousse has done a spectacular job!
Rating: Summary: SIMPLY THE BEST!!! Review: THIS DICTIONARY IS THE BEST I HAVE VER USED AND WELL WORTH THE PRICE. IT HAS NUMEROUS ENTRIES FOR SPECIFIC WORDS, BUT CLEARLY STATES THE CONTEXT, COUNTRY, ETC. IN WHICH EACH IS USED. THIS DICTIONARY HAS TECHNICAL, BUSINESS, MILITARY AND OTHER TERMINOLOGY. I HAVE A DEGREE IN SPANISH, WORK AS A TRANSLATOR, AND LIVED IN CENTRAL AMERICA FOR 4 YEARS. THIS IS THE ONLY BILINGUAL DICTIONARY I NEED AND USE. I HAVE AT LEAST 4 OTHER DICTIONARIES BUT RARELY REFER TO THEM! EL PEQUEÑO LAROUSSE ILUSTRADO (MONOLINGUAL DICTIONARY) IS OUTSTANDING AS WELL.
