This new edition of the Little Oxford English Dictionary is part of Oxford's new range of dictionaries based on the highly-acclaimed New Oxford Dictionary of English. In a portable and durable format, it is an excellent all-purpose dictionary, and is particularly suitable for secondary school level. The emphasis is therefore on clarity and accessibility both in terms of layout and content. The attractive new design makes it very easy to find the information you need, while definitions are written in clear and simple English, avoiding technical vocabulary. Pronunciation guidance is given using a simple respelling system. Extra help is provided in the shape of in-text notes which give guidance on spelling, usage, and selected word origins, and special panels which cover general grammar points, such as punctuation, word building, and parts of speech. The Little Oxford Dictionary is further enhanced by a 16-page quick reference supplement, which includes frequently misspelled words and commonly confused pairs of words, as well as lists of wedding anniversaries and countries and currencies. This title replaces the previous edition ISBN 0-19-860205-7.
