ADRIENNE'S DICTIONARY CL by Adrienne

A new English-French dictionary, which encompasses the English languge as it is spoken today. From literary chat to street talk, from business expressions to slang - the book covers everything and censors nothing, giving the specific translation for each meaning of a word in the appropriate context. The book is also a grammar guide and thesaurus; it treats American and British English as equal; it enlarges vocabulary through word-logic associations, matches the rich synonyms of the French language with their precise equivalents in English and offers information on what it terms "false friends" for each word (that is, it is not enough to know what what a word is - one needs to know also what it is not).
